Green eyesby
LevTComment by SJCarter: * Greetings from the Critique Club *
First of all, let me say that this is truly a beautiful shot! Well done.
Some of my comments would include:
*I can't tell that her eyes are truly green (they look brown to me), so I would probably either change the title or adjust the color saturation.
*The lighting on her face is a little dark. I think you could increase this selectively during post-processing in whatever your application of choice may be.
*I really like the overall lighting of the shot. The hair's a bit messy, but that happens... ;-)
*You managed to catch a good expression (full of mystery) in the model's face.
*I think you made good use of the blurred background effect. Oftentimes this is overused/misused, but you used it both tastefully and in a manner that added to the overall feeling of your image.
*This may sound like an odd question, but did you happen to remove something (or some things) from the floorboard of the pier in the background? I only ask because of the periodic apparent "holes" in the silhouette of the pier's floor. It's not a big deal, but I did notice it and wonder what was up...
*Overall, a very nicely composed & executed shot. I think you could benefit from some additional postprocessing of the image, but that's really a very minor point.
Nice job & a beautiful shot to share - thank you!
Just my 2 cents...
