Her eyesby MiinervaComment: Cool idea, comes off pretty well. I find the reflections in her right eye distracting -- either more indirect lighting, a better angle, or some careful cloning could reduce that. |

I can hear musicby RUEDISCHMUTZComment: I think I'd make a mask for the far background and blur the heck out of it (or fill with a gradient) so this would look more like a studio shot than a candid portrait. Great pose/expression. |

The Softer Side of Me...by aaronb532Comment: I'd like to know your motivation for the negative space ... it works OK but I don't immediately see the purpose of it. With the lighting and exposure you have, you could crop this in half and have a very nicely-rendered "typical" portrait -- maybe that's reason enough for the treatment you gave it. |

KIDS!by ChefbozComment: A clever take on the challenge, and you somehow seem to have gotten them to enjoy cooperating! |

Concentrationby scribeComment: Lighting seems a little harsh to me, maybe especially with your title. Maybe if you were trying to convery "startled" then the brighter light and deep shadows would "fit" better. |

Portrait Doubleby ColeyComment: Pretty well-executed example of this technique -- I might have used the Burn or Clone tools to tone down the brightest highlights on the chin. |

Forty-Nineby charmayneComment: I'm not sure I understand the reason for the rather unusual profile composition. Exposure, detail, etc. seem good. |

Annaby heidaComment: My first impulse is to crop a little more off the right, but it doesn't seem to be a big deal. A good use of the "non-portrait" format. |

Princess by SonifoComment: Hmmm... yes, the crinkly light dress is a studio mainstay. Nice example of the genre ... |

Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboyby L1Comment: I think maybe a square crop would reinforce/concentrate the intensity of your subject -- right now, I don't think the extra image on the sides adds that much, and you'll still be able to tell it's a hat. |
