As to the overall composition: I like the hill to the right, not to keen on the boat in the background (would probably have cloned that away) and I would be curious to see the effect of a little lower viewpoint. And I hope I would have straightened the horizon. But criticism is easy - first I would have to make a picture as nice as this one ;-)

Thanks bsluijk - feedback much appreciated. I agree that seeing her eyes would have been a nice addition especially as she has fantastic blue eyes. I think this shot was the best of a bad bunch. Here are a few others. Note these have no processing apart from cropping.







Good point about the horizon - I always forget this one and it makes such a difference.

What a superb description. If you don't mind I am going to rename the image:)

Thanks Guys for the much appreciated feedback. Yeah the bubble over the face doesn't do it any favours. It was tricky as I was blowing the bubbles and taking the photos at the same time - lots of fun though:)

Bah, wish I hadn't left that border in. I had added it to my other contender and just copied it across to this one without much thought. Still a very pleasing score

I really like the look and feel of the photo but my initial impressions was it feels like I am only viewing half a photo - perhaps this is due to it being portrait orientation or just my curiosity to see what is to the right and left.

I now note that it was taken on a camera phone - amazing!!

Great guessing and very nice compliments thank you.

Good point about the halo - was a bit of a rush job last thing at night and my tired eyes did not pick up on it.

The pictures make a word...can you solve it?
