The pink and yellow are great contrasts. The flowing of the fabric in the wind adds a nice sense of movement. But with such brightness on her clothing, your eye is drawn to it and not her face. Maybe crop out some of the lower part of the shot and concentrate on her!

Greetings from the Critique Club.

This is a funny picture. I like the facial expression and it totally matches the title, he really looks like he's secretely planning something. Great capture.

As far as the composition, nice job with filling the frame. I think a slighly tighter crop would have been beneficial as it would have gotten rid of the distracting bright area on the lower right corner. My eyes keep getting drawn to it and it takes attention away from the subject. Since this was an Advanced Editing challenge, I would have probably gotten rid of the bright spot on his right shoulder and on the middle right hand area of the picture as well.

The focus is right for a portrait of this nature but I think perhaps slightly sharper eyes would look better. The lighting is also good, no blown highlights. Keep up the good work.

If you have any questions or comments about this critique, please feel free to PM me.

Love the perspective and the eyes. The focus seems to be a hair off and the whites a tad too bright IMHO, but the composition/crop is perfect and the expression is great. His eyes really come across as deep pools of emotion. Great capture!

This is really cute. Some catchlights in his eyes would have added a spark to the portrait. Possibly moving the lighting just a bit.
