Nice shot with good lighting, would have retouched slightly though, like the spot on her lips. Beautiful girl!

Excellent portrait! I love the composition, lighting, and desat work here. I also really like the filter here as it really adds to the portrait. Great focus and DOF. Nice work.

Love the dof here Ryan but think it might be even better if her eyebrow was oof? Lighting and composition is top notch :)

Ryan this is really, really cool. The composition and movement is just perfect, love how that one leg is fixed and the heart in the wall is a nice touch too. To top it off, tones are just great and a very nice, subtle duotone conversion.

Karl smiled to himself as he made his way to work. Throughout society, there was a fascination and obsession with superheroes like never before. Movies, comics, games. They seemed to be saturated with these super beings with powers untold. Everywhere you looked, people wanted to be superheroes. They played with superhero toys, they drank from superhero themed cups. They ate at superhero themed restaurants.

Yet for all of their love for these beings, these symbols of humanity's desire to strive for more, better, stronger, easier, for all of that people still knew that super-beings were a fiction.

Karl smiled again, and passed among the buildings unnoticed, speeding along so quickly that none could even tell he'd been there. Yes, let them think it was all a fiction. He didn't mind. Sometimes a super power didn't mean you had to be super at all.
