Wow! Gorgeous shot Mark! I'm surprised that this is under the 7.0 mark. But you were up against some tough competition. This really is gorgeous though!

A gorgeous image, to be sure. I would have expected a higher score from this one.

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! :-)

You always get such gorgeous eyes ... you must hand-select your subjects for their eyes. :-)

I love the over-the-shoulder look and your composition works well bringing her to the left side of the frame. Beautiful gal, too. Where do you find such beauties to shoot?

Lovely lady. And the photographic work ain't bad either. Nice lighting and composition. I love the sharp focus on the eyes.

A good example of how important shadows are for seeing the 3-D shape of the face in a 2-D medium. Good work on the lighting!
