Rina, maybe you are starting a trend here on DPC? :) I know you got your share of 1,2 and 3 votes, but you got as many 10s as 1s and that has to be good thing. Look at the commenters score too :) Great stuff and should in my not so humble opinion have scored much higher. Would have been a 10 from me if I could have voted.

OOh, look at that. I think the vintage processing is the only way to go for a Vespa. Thanks for sharing.

Greetings from the Critique Club

First Impression: Very nice to see such creative processing in the portrait challenge.

Composition: Bang on the money for me. I think it works extremely well.

Technical: Well, I am not seeing anything untoward here. I think it's well exposed, well lit and as said earlier, well composed. I suppose the only thing I can think of to explain the mid-range score is that people didn't like the processing. It could be a love/hate thing. I know it's always quite risky to use one of those Nik filters. (I used an amended version of the Holga for my own pigeon entry and it tanked!).

Artistic: Not your run of the mill portrait, so in that respect maybe a bit "out of the box" for this challenge?

I'm not certain why it didn't score higher, it's a strong image but maybe the processing is just not to everybody's taste. I happen to like it and would likely have given a 6/7 had I voted.
