Wonderful compositiona nd expression, marred somewhat by less-than-critical visual acuity and a tad too much contrast.

Excellent shot, but it doesn't look candid to me...

Nice work
One thing I would say is that the composition is to tight. It feels to much like a portrait. But I will not hammer the vote for that reason. Maybe more background and surroundings would have given it a more candid feeling.

This is a very appealing image. The colors & dof (boken) easily pull me to the subject.For me this has a more hopeful than depresive quality. Great job on this most interesting submisson. Good luck and cheer up this new year. ;-)

she still looks kinda depressed - i hope you took this on dec31 and not jan1 ;)

very expressive style of image.. all the burning really helps bring out focus to the left. great choice of location, as well.

Wow this is one of the best in the challenge. You always take such excellent photos.

I love the pose and soft feel, the pose gives a seductive sexy feel. The colors work well with the softness, it blends the whole photo together. The border also works great with this. I can never get my borders to work.

The only thing I can nit pick at is the definition between the legs and th concrete post. But that may be my monitor.

This is a great photo I am sure it will be in the top ten. 10
