The first thing that strikes me is where do I look? My eyes seem to wander all over this shot.

Quite an interesting photograph, but not one that is for me unfortunately.

I don't really understand why a hand has been painted on a plastic dummies breast, or why a straw hat appears at the top.

Looks like you placed a lot of effort into this photo though - which is nice to see.

Very well lit!

Nice and sharp flooring, and glass is well defined. Subject a little bland for me, but the lighting and composition make it a lot more pleasing to look at.

Good work!

Greetings from the Critique Club ;)

Ramon, I think your idea is very nice, the legs are soft and the skin is smooth;) Quite a sexy scene.

However their are a few things with the photograph that I think could be improved upon.

The first thing is the focusing - I imagine your intended focal point is the shoes / feet considering this is a feet challenge, yet they are very soft which is a real shame.

There is a lot of detail in the shoes which really needs to be pin sharp to show it's full detail.

The second thing is the background. Now I may be wrong here, but most people go for a pure black background - if that was your intention then you needed to under expose a stop or two as i can see the ripples and creases.

Finlay, the overall exposure is a little under exposed on the legs, a quick fix in photoshop would be to adjust the levels which would sort it out. To get it right in camera I would have shined less light on the background, and a little more on the models legs.

Overall I find 5.7 a fair score and a worthy effort.

You completely ruined a very decent photograph by messing with the sky.

Just trying to be honest. Inly my opinion.

Like the scene, like the leaf even more. The only bad thing is the hand holding the leaf - looks artifical and forced.

If that was recomposed to appear as if it was hanging naturaly this would be very nice indeed.

Not every toad needs licking..;)

I like bthis, very well focused etc. Maybe a tiny crop if it was me, but works as it is. Like the very shallow DOF. Not many people blur the front side, so nice to see people using that technique.

Changed my mind - I wanna have this on my desktop!

Superlative shot - very basic scene turned into something truly wonderful to look at. That in essence is what photography Si all about. A 10 and in my faves!
