Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.
Great fun to do a critique on your image but it is difficult if you don't give us any information in your photographers comments. When we do a critique, we go past just the photographic result, that's what voters comments do. The critique looks at what you were trying to achieve, how you wanted it to look and what issues you had in getting the image captured and ready for voting.
First Impression - the most important one:
Gorgeous - young and impressionable - well that is t he image anyway.
Composition:
I really do like this .. the rule of thirds appears to have bene applied 9 knowingly or not) ...
Subject:
I don't know that this meets the challenge - those do not look like bi-focals (which often have a line across them where the split in the lens is) ... others may have picked this up .. as noted by kiwinick ... I think that the earring may be overkill - only as it is quite a distinicly different colour of pink.
Technical (Colour and light):
You have some interesting comments on this in the comments recieved .. I think that she is quite well lit and I like the colours in the picture - the use of the pink keeps it in the realness of her young age ... other colours I think may be too harsh.
To grow its vote?:
most of the things that i can think of would take time, you did not have the luxery ... I think you did an exceptional job and well deserved a place in the top 20!
Summary:
Well done .. lovely shot .. more details help me when commenting.
If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.
Cheers
Kari
