| I have come back to look at this several times and have finally decided I like it :) The composition / subject is just so odd, that it took me awhile to appreciate it. I just really like the black and whites, the lighting and the way she is looking straight into the camera. It may not be totally to my tastes, but it certainly carries an impact. Congrats! |

Congrats on the ribbon Claire! Well done and well deserved!
Just thinking about what might have helped it score a little higher... I'm thinking that maybe a little more detail in the whites (the nose and flower details). Not a lot, or it would spoil the effect. But just enough to give the viewer a little more to hang onto.
Anyway, congrats on another 7+ finish! :-)

lovethelight said: "ps. I was wondering if the people who gave me 1s and 2s could tell me what it is they didn't like about it, because I have gotten a lot of positive feedback on this but would like to hear some negative feedback"
Your photo is technically good; but as you may appreciate, sometimes mere taste is a decisive factor in weighing a photos score; in a photo such as yours 1,2,3,4 even 5 represent the same attitude towards this type of photography. This does not necessarily reflect my exact opinion on such photos, but it is a response I felt you are entitled to.
Congratulations on the ribbon
