Nothing appears to be in true focus and looks over sharpened to try and compensate.

Beautiful detail... but has the look of being over-sharpened.

I like the concept of the shot. What bothers me is the severe contrast between the forehead and nose bridge and the eye makeup. Perhaps with different toning /hue...

The Look

Comment:
I like the pose. The colors and contrasts are great. What I find a little off is the perspective. There is a lot of shape/contour/depth to most of the shot. But the angle of her face to the camera seems a little off. It is the only part of the pic that looks flat and not as detailed and strong as the rest of the shot. For example, her left cheek looks totally flat and somewhat sunken.

I guess people don't know what it is like to rock-hop around a river or creek. I like the DoF of the shot and the colors are strong. Nice contrasts as well.

I really hate the way Woody shots are treated on this site. I am convinced people are jealous because they don't have a Woody or do but lack the imagination to create a good shot with one. In any case, I know where at least one of your 10's came from.

Thanks for the 'cringe of pain!' Nice job on an underappreciated shot.
