I really like the composition and mystery here. The scarf and background color match spot-on. It would be interesting to see the model's eye match a bit more.

I gave this a six ... I am surprised at the final score ... I thought out of the people shots this was one of the better concepts behind the picture.

Comment by puzzled:
I agree that this is under-rated. I gave this a 6, which is (for comparison) the same as I rated place #7. To me, it was obvious that a lot of work was put into this entry and that it met the challenge. The reasons I didn't rate it higher are because the effect might have been a little too subtle. Had her hair been blowing backwards even more, facial expression showing some surprise, and light more dramatic, I would've given this a 9 or 10. But how on earth you ended up way back here in place 251 is beyond me! This was a really good entry.

you know I usually don't comment on underateds, but this was amazingly so. Takes thought and as kiwiness said, a healthy dose of cinematic knowledge (but that isn't a must to enjoy it).

Comment by oOWonderBreadOo:
I gave you a 7... her face is expressionless and you can barely see her eyes which is a disappointment here. However it is perfectly lit and an interesting idea, thus the 7 :0)

this shot is SO underrated, it is not even funny. Great idea, and well executed. The only thing I'd have changed is to use a different color of the background, so the golden glow on the person stands out more.

Great textural capture of the fabric covering the woman's face; excellent composition, as well. I love the shot.
