I tried this a lot during the shooting I did for this challenge and failed. I awe you for your precision in motion blurring. 7.

if only you had waited for her to take a drag off that ciggie, or to exhale. anything that would have brought life into the image. also, it's a bit over-exposed, wouldn't you say?

Wish it was cropped tighter and the forgound was gone.

Comment by dahkota:
subject is sharp, image composed well. Honestly, its not giving me much of interest to dwell on. A well taken image and a good candid but short of what I would consider a great candid. 6

I'm not much for receiving or giving comments, but since Candids are
near and dear to my heart, I have decided to give comment on every entry
in this challenge.

This is an ok candid, but has very little interest or pop to me. A woman reading and sitting on a bench is just to uninteresting of a shot. It's a candid, and does meet challenge, has good technicals as red is hard to photograph, but it is just not my particular interest for a candid. It's a 4 for me.

Quite a bit overexposed, unfortunately. For a candid to appeal to me I want to see the subject captured doing something unexpected (but in a real, not set-up way), or as is more common, in away that reveals something about a universal theme (love, happiness, friendship, loneliness, etc) and do it in a way that engages the viewer in an emotional way. This subject has potential but this shot didn't quite capture it for me.
