Very stark photo. I like the blown out sections a lot, they make your eyes and lips stand out more. I don't really care for the lime green background, but that's a personal preference :)

Nice clean, crisp lines and shot. Good choice of black and white. WHat is that stuff in the lower right corner? that's a bit distracting, but otherwise great shot!

What a cool and original thought. I like the choice in DOF, and it has a nice crisp focus to it where you wanted it to be focused. I like this very much.

Hi Koriyama!

This is your critique from the critique club.

It's funny that I should get this picture to critique, cause I have had my eye on it for the last week or so. I saw it, and I found it immediately appealing.

The lighting is superb, and so is the composition. I don't understand what brought your score down. My only guess is that there is a slight graininess, probably from using such an extreme Aperture setting. I think if you had tried something shallower for a macro like this, it may have been less grainy.

There is such a stark desolate feeling to this picture. I really like it, and had I voted, I would have given it very high marks.
Great job on your first shot.

What a lovely portrait :) I like the lighting on the left hand side. I think if you'd managed to keep it even through the whole shot, like on the left, it would have worked a bit better. The right seems a bit blown out. Great colours.

This is such a cool and imaginative shot. I like the feeling. There's one flaw right under the hairline on the right, where it's a bit reddish... but not much of a flaw for me.

I feel so light ...

Cute title :) Are you praying? I think this would have probably worked better without the light behind your head, lol.

What beautiful eyes. I like this shot a lot, very daring. I particularly like how you're about to blend into the background! I keep on getting lost in your eyes. A very appealing picture.
