Critique Club Review:

Color Saturation and Hue: Colors are natural, skin tones are excellent!

Brightness and Contrast: Excellent work. Details are held in the highlights, and the darks are nice and inky.

Focus and depth of field: Lazer sharp focus, depth of field is about perfect for this type of image.

There are only two very minor things I can think of that you might want to look at in this image. There is a pale area to the right of her neck that is a little distracting. I'm not sure if it is background or what. But it is disconnected from everything else, and almost comes across as lens flare, which should not be the case with this lighting. The tear does not look quite real. Placing and size comes across as suspect to my eye. (Now if she really is crying I'm gonna feel like a jerk.)

Other than the two above mentioned details, this image is killer.

Congratulations on a very well deserved top ten finish.

Dark and moody, but does have an odd 3-d feeling.
My main problem is with the title, I don't understand the disaster factor, what I get is dining with dirt.

I like the dark moodiness that raises so many questions. I particularly like the path leading (to me) away and measurably lighter than the rest of the scene. I think this is a fine departure!

i really like this dark and moody shot. the composition is nice and the processing adds interest to what might have been just an ordinary snapshot. very nice work and nicely seen!
