This is a nice head shot. For a portrait I think you need to show the eyes--open the shades on the window to the soul, if you will.

Comment by L1:
The light coming down on her face is a bit harsh...creates a glow on her hair. Also, there is a wisp of hair in her bangs that covers the iris of her right eye, which causes her eye too look completly white and unnatural. Pose is cute, but the pop casts a big shadow on the left side of her face. The sleeve covering her hand is a distraction to me. The highlight on the tip of her nose creates a glow that almost causes that part of her nose to disappear. With a bit of a lighting adjustment, this could be a very nice portrait. :o)

Cool idea, with nice lighting, but showing the eyes might strengthen the image overall.

It seems like the WB if off a little bit. No big deal though.

I'm not sure what to say ... I can't figure this one out. Her eyes are closed. She's hiding behind her hair and blowing on a lolly pop. Maybe I'm looking too deep, but I don't get it.

The idea is great - but model looks to be just holding or blowing on the lolipop. Black background really makes the hair color stand out. My biggest problem with it though is that fact that the eyes are so hidden.

Glare from her hair is a bit distracting.

Not realy my taste, I can't see the face because of the hair, and because of that her nose sticks out, So when I look at this picture I see the nose first.
The shadows and almost overexposed highlights disturb it a bit.
That's only MY opinion.
