I like the nice warm tone, and the composition of this, but actually find the tree trunk to be a bit distracting. A very sweet picture though.

WOW. Thought I was going to have to get sunglasses out there for a minute. The color in this is actually quite beautiful. Nicely done.

Stunning! I am a huge fan of shots like this that just almost border on skin highlights blowing out. I really like the angle you shot from, and just the overall look of the shot. Beautiful model too.

The hair hanging down is what "makes" this shot for me. It just gives it that little something unexpected that really makes you take a second look. Gorgeous color.

This shot looks like you might have travelled back in time to take it. It has that kind of feel. Just a great shot.

This is lovely, I like the tight crop, and the the side light. I can imagine that some will say it needs more light, but I don't think so, I think the lighting is perfect for the subject.

I adore this shot, it's one of my favorites in the challenge, and even more so now that I am back to look at it again, and comment. Her outfit goes so well with the overall color tone of the rest of the photo, and yet the colors she's wearing are superbly vivid. I love the look on her face, the way her hair is done, the dainty little necklace, just everything. Composition is wonderful too. Great work here!

Interesting take on a portrait study. I honestly much prefer to see a little more of a person's face in a portrait.

Interesting candid portrait. Makes you want to ask so many questions. It's nice to see a portrait that portrays more than just a face. With this, you get a feeling of time/place/life.
