Comment by fotodude:
the post prosses here is very drastic and i can see the eadges, next time watch for that with feathering or blend it better in another way so it is less appearent. also using DoF to achieve the same resould would have saved time and been a cleaner image in the end.....its a nice cover also but doesn't strike me as a studio portrait...this is based on the difused/and somewhat flat light (as from a cloudy day)... a spot simple home light set up and it would read more as studio...

Not a good title. Sorry. :) I do like everything about the photo except for that pale egg and her out of focus arm. Maybe I'm not getting it. Anyway, just my .02 cents. Good luck.

OH MAN! You almost nailed this image! SO CLOSE, I feel for you. If only you had the plane over her face to the egg to be in focus then you would have had an awesome image well worth an 8 or 9. Unfortunately, the beautiful necklace distracts me and the garment she is wearing under the jacket makes me want to look at her boobs--my eye goes right to that area.

This photo seems to suffer a bit from the post editing.
The shallow DOF seem to have been edited-in through blurring and sharpening, am I correct? Giving this photo an almost artificial appearance.
Nonetheless, I still think this is a fairly good photo, and will vote it well.

Nice idea - and nice lot of comments shows that it elicits interest. I gave it one of the higher votes. But if only the definition had been better on the soles.

Only because I hadn't gotten around to reading them yet -- I don't read them during the voting period.

The hand and egg is terribly distracting from this shot. I think I just would have like thid one better had you cropped out the whole left side and just focused on the girl.
