Nice flower shot. The way you've cropped this makes it different than the other flowers in this challenge

Nice image. Comp is terrific. Focus is very good. DOF interesting. Top third of the flower genre this challenge.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

The message
A nice travel shot of a woman who is certainly enjoying herself. It tells a story and would certainly bring back memories for the subject. It isn't what I would consider a studio portrait.

Creative choices
Pose is nice. Sunglasses are distracting. Composition is good, with the background train well placed. Lighting is harsh.

Technical aspects
Focus is good. Exposure is fine; although parts of the background are burned out, the model's face is exposed well. The digital noise in her face and the train doesn't detract from the photo, but could have been avoided by using a lower ISO.

If this is purple, then my hair is green! Good composition though, has a very nice texture.

Good technical photo. The subject and composition does not hold my interest, though and it looks really blue on my monitor.

Sorry but I dont understand this picture, what is the story to tell - if you really like this planter that much, why dont move it around a littel so the surroundings would be more appealing for the picture. Sorry 1 from me.

I'll admit that variances in computer monitors might be the problem here but I see nothing purple in this photo.
