Critique Club Review:

Color Saturation and Hue: N/A image is monochrome.

Brightness and contrast: Brightness is well done, as is contrast. Your choices here really made the eyes dominate the image. Excellent!

Focus and depth of field: Focus is very nicely done. Depth of field is excellent. The full depth from the model's arms to the back of her ears are all nice and sharp.

Subjective: Wow! Holly may have another career choice if she so chooses. I think the left arm is fine, it is the right arm that distracts a bit for me. However, I am not sure what to recommend here. The eyes are killer! And more arm means smaller eyes and face, they are where it's at in this image. So perhaps moving that right arm a bit, with a small increase in the width is the answer.

I could easily see this image in a magazine or on a poster in an ad campaign. Very nicely done.

Very good hi-key. A little extreme perhaps, but well done.

I love the light in this shot. Very nice.

This is well done but I think the composition could have excluded the armpit which seems a little too prominent and detracts a little from what is otherwise a fine high-key image.

love the pose and crop here but the black and white is too flat, needs a bit more contrast in the greys. Other then that, lighting is ok, the main light is a little low and there's not a lot of modeling to the light but it's clean enough. Lot's of potential but just misses the mark IMHO - 6

Interesting shot, pose is pretty good, crop is okay, seems a little pale, maybe adjust levels for a little more contrast

Fantastic pose, and a wonderful model. I feel like this might have been better with some light from the back and just a fill from the front to give more depth.

Interesting, but too many arms coming into and out of frame make it distracting. Her face is very beautiful, I wish that was more the focus of the shot but instead it is cut off.

Nice high key work here. Way out of my own class.
