Style in High Key

The editing is perhaps a little too much for me, but I find it interesting how there are little patches of fuzzy detail among the blurred sections. neat.

I'm not sure about the angle, but the processing is teriffic! I would also suggest not cropping so tightly - the textures and colors of the background are so interesting I think it would add a great deal to the photo if there was more of it.

I like the high-key, high contrast processing you used here. Good composition, too.

The terrific colors and intense contrast create a very dramatic photo.

I'm guessing this is user windtale :)

I usually like artistic blur, but I like it to be more... complete and thorough. In this shot, the blur is really more of almost a haze or a smudge. Basically I think this might have turned out better if it was either in perfect focus, or with a whole lot more blur. Just a thought. :)

Sitting Down

Took me a second to figure out that the camera is pointing down at the subject... I don't particularly care for the composition here, it seems flat and uninteresting. but I have no clue how that could be fixed, and yet still portray the clever concept you have in this shot. I also, personally, do not care for how the sepia worked out here.

This just looks much too posed... to me, her facial expression doesn't look genuine, and imho, makes the image less interesting. The lighting is great, though.
