Very nice colours and DOF, you really nailed the focus.

As an entry for the Hate II challenge this works well. Expression is good, light is dramatic. How could it be improved from a portrait perspective? Current DOF emphasizes the mouth and eyes nicely, but I would have liked to see the upper teeth in better focus -- it is possible some selective sharpening would take care of this (admittedly not OK for basic editing for the Hate challenge, but worth a shot for the Portrait side challenge). And perhaps having the inside of the mouth lit up so we can see the uvula hanging down would add even more pop to this.

I think the only thing i can possibly think to make this better ( I find it an already very well put together image, subject is in focus, up front, well seen, well played) I think the eyes could have had more squint or more strain to them.

Nice simple portrait. my only comment is that her hair looks a little gritty on my screen.

I love this. Her eyes just pop off of the page. The shape of the buttons creates a repeating theme and then her pupils add to it. Different. NICE.

Her skin is very heavy on yellow and not enough magenta, and also a little bit hot in places. The hand is chopped off, and not digging her expression. Nice otherwise! 6

Hey Andrew, love the expression, and also love your lighting setup - I'm no stranger to making do with whatever lights are kicking around! BTW are you a twin, or are you and your brother really close in age? Just curious.

1975, I'd say. What a way to make a statement! :-)
