Hi, as requested, here is an indepth critique of your submission.
First Impression - the most important one:
Nice shot, nicely lit and attractive subject. Congrats on your personal best score.
Composition:
The composition is pretty good, but the lighting hurts the overall comp some. I believe a tighter (perhaps square) crop to exclued the lower body would have produced a more appealing image. Not that this one is bad by any means.
Subject:
Nothing to distract me from the subject. That's always a plus :-)
Technical (Color, focus, and light):
Color: I'm thinking I would desaturate the photo just a bit as it's looking just a bit too red to me.
Focus: looks good and sufficient DoF to keep the entire subject in focus.
Light: I like the overall lighting. Very nice. I'm not liking the lighting fall off on the legs. I think I would have cropped the image just above the pubic mound to deal with this issue.
To grow its vote?:
The few issues I called out would have grown the vote quite a bit. Technically, it's a great photo and I kinda think it's a bit under-rated. But, them's the breaks.
Summary:
Really nice work. Keep it up.
Hope to see more from you soon,
Leroy
