I would say to improve this shot, the light on the rocks in the foreground should have been darker otherwise nice sunset.

I like this but what I think would have made it perfect would be balanced lighting. Her mouth and cheeks are much brighter then the flowers and over power her eyes, which are lovely BTW. A great idea though.

If you had used a soft box or even a white cardboard to defuse the flash or light you used I think that would have balenced the lihgt a little better.

Oh, the pics I would take if I were invisible...

Yakatme is being diplomatic, I can't be, you were robbed this should have won. I gave you a 10 and anyone who didn't understand the originality of this image and the excellent way you pulled it off, shouldn't be voting. Another picture which proves what I have been saying about people voting on DPC, there is no accounting for taste.

I have pictures my dad took in Europe when he was there in WWII which look just like this. So cozy these winding streets.

Berniece Abbott once said something to the effect, when shooting a picture the most importent part of the image of a person is their eyes. If the eyes are in focus that will be a great image. Thus the 9 on this one.
Between the eyes and the background lighting this is an amazing shot.

Changing New York Berneice Abbott

I would have done this in B&W to tribute a great photographer like Berneice Abbott. Angles are nice and the crop is good but B&W would have made it a 10 as is I'll give you a 9 since I think the reason you didn't make it B&W was because it is a changing NY. Good image overall though.

This should have won. But 4th isn't bad higher then I have even been. Excellent job as I said in my post.

I don't know if this is within the rules but besides that, I think it is too dark and even with the help of the title it makes no sense to me. It isn't interesting but I know you put a lot of work into it and maybe if it was brighter. This is more of an artistic rendition of a photograph or photographs. I thought we didn't do that here? Maybe I am wrong. In another context you might find this gets a lot of approval.
