Comment by jdannels:
I like the shallow depth of field, it really allows you to ssee how alone the person is, nice shot Ben.

Comment by posthumous:
Nice capture of facial expression, nice minimalistic use of detail: the face is drawn with simple shapes of black on white.. I think the excessive horizontality isn't helping you, it just draws attention to itself. I would try reducing it to cinema proportions. I don't mind the focus on the wall except that the texture isn't interesting enough. Perhaps if you cropped the left side you would fix both of my problems.

great composition and lighting. I'm not sure I like how the focus is on the wall instead of the face but it does add a nice mystery to it.

i wouldn't crop this. for me, my eye rested first on the line from her shoulder blade to her neck, which drew my eye to her face so i like the extra space. a little dodge like jdannels is good in the upper right but i prefer this image the way you have it, less contrasty. seems like sunday morning to me.

I agree that lightening the puppy's eyes would be nice but I like him where he is. I really like this pic...a lot.
