I think this would work a lot better if she was taken away from the centre of the frame.

The person really competes for attention in this photo...

Interesting shot with the reflection of the camera and photographer in each lens. The selective desaturation work well here.

Not quite my definition of portrait...

Subject looks a bit soft and is too centred.

Nice capture, I would have prefered to have a bit more definition in the hat, but I suppose then you would clip the hair completely into a black void.

Too cluttered, the busy background takes attention away from what should be the subject in a portrait, the person.

Does not really meet the challenge in my opinion, will give you the benefit of the doubt...

Background is very noisy, this needs a run through neat image or the like. Since the challenge was advanced editing, you could have just applied the noise reduction to the owl, keeping the background sharp.

Composition is also very centred, and the owl seems a bit soft to me.

A bit too dark for my tastes, needs some proper highlights.
