Valerie is beautiful, but this shot is quite blurry...had this been sharp around the eyes, it would do fantastic because the colours and pose are great and the composition is wonderful...

The soft focus or slight blurring here doesn't fit well for me.

I like the softness... except around the eyes, it feels like it has gone too soft (potentially, it may have been out of focus). The thing that makes it feel wrong is that her right shoulder (left side of the image) appears to be very sharp, even while her eyes are blurred. So either the camera focused on the wrong location, or the post processing softness wasn't applied across the entire image - in which case, the best place to reduce the softness is in the eyes.

The car is more in focus than the subject. It doesn't look right.

Homeless shot no. 4, only 50% through challenge. Reckon you could have given the girl a break, life's tough enough without serving as a prop for someone play in a photo contest.

I really like how she is grainy and the cars behind her are clear. Kind of says something about her situation huh?? 7

Interesting.. how you got the coloring and the switch from grainy to sharp in Basic is something I'd love to know. :)
