Model is appropriate. There are several factors which make this photograph unacceptable.

- Contrast. Lack thereof. This shot could have used a nice boost in contrast.
- Framing. Could have cropped off the distracting white at the lower right corner and upper right corner, and the female could have been shot in front of a more interesting backdrop. A slight rotation clockwise could have improved this.
- Red eye. Under the basic editing rules, this is problematic. I think instead of shooting her face on, a different angle would have been more compelling and eliminated the red eye, to boot.
- Detail. Focus is soft and the resolving capability of the camera is rather dismal. Perhaps a tighter shot would have brough out more details which was lost with this particular composition.

Given these considerations I can't rate this very highly, sorry.

The focus is soft on this shot, and there's insufficient contrast. Teen's eyeball is a funky looking. I think you had a nice concept but the execution suffered from technicalities.

Man's Imposed Authority over Women

Sad.

Composition is good. The lighting is not. I would suggest shining a light over cowering woman as the focus is there.

Book of Psalm: conveniently located near the middle! Perhaps an increase in the DOF would have solved the loss of focus in the right page. Otherwise sharp, detailed, and appropriate.

Nice colors. Face is perhaps a shade too saturated. I like the composition overall.
