Come Away With Me

Comment by Malokata:
Everything looks really nice, and in focus, except for that house. It's actually really strange how it's blurry amidst generally clear surroundings. Nice composition.

Arnit I hope you are starting to pay your model well :-) She is becoming very famous here on DPC! Excellent portrait, beautiful large dreamy eyes. Great DOF, yet again another 10 from me.

PS: Say hi from me.

Hands are distracting -- shouldn't be in the shot.

Your model's "look" is perfect for Vogue. It is as good as their own covers. Soft focus green colored background adds color balance.

absolutely fabulous arnit--she is gorgeous, your photography is awesome and you, as usual, are my hero! :)

i love the contrast of red and green with her blonde hair--very striking and stunning. my only teeny nitpick--more for real life than anything--is being careful of mixing warm and cool shades of red--this lipstick looks great on her, but generally red lipsick is glamorous on its own and tends to be worn more with neutral colors to highlight the splash of color and the elegance the red brings. im still giving you a 10 because this shot is so wonderful, but had she a black or white shirt on i would have given you a 20! ;)

I think we can definately hear the sound in this shot.
I was thinking though, that when people are screaming at the top of their lungs, they don't usually have their eyes open, but I do see that her fists are cleched, which is another 'stereotype' of screaming at the top of your lungs.
Something that is bothering me in this shot, and I just can't seem to shake it off, is that her right eye (our left) is more in focus than the other one. I don't think anyone else mentioned this, so maybe it's just something that bothers me only, but I do find it a bit strange. Even that eyebrow is sharper focus than the other one.
I do really like the way it makes her hair look. Flipping out like you'd see in the cartoons with their hair all standing out on end, but here it's the angle that makes it look dramatic.
I personally like the extra room on the left of the shot. She's not all centered perfectly, and I think that goes well with the dramatic from above angle.
Lighting appears to have been just great for this shot.
Very nice.

You have chosen a nice model for the picture. The red clothes combined with the red lipstick and work very well. There are some things which could be improved IMHO: the zipper is distracting and makes the picture quite ordinary. Also the skin tone is a little too white: 'warmer light' would improve this greatly.

On any glamour cover shot, I have to be strict. It's a very precise way they take the pictures. Lots of make-up. Over-expose. That's just how it's done. And usually, very very perfect lighting. This picture feels a little green, too. A nice attempt though.

i think i saw this picture already before the challenge. IMO hands are very white, but as this lady can be from Iceland, that's OK, but still I think you should use some powder to make less difference between her face & hand skin. = 5
