The obligatory rotunda shot. LOL I actually like this version.

Love the simplicity of this shot, tones and contrasts are wonderful and it takes a lot of skill to make a picture out of nothing. Maybe (just maybe) I would have tried to clone out the handle, but this is just a very minor tweak rather than anything major

This is beautiful. Is that natural light then? Love the details on the door and wall, and the shadows.

Awesome, photography with great use of light and color, for natural light the camera settings spot on...

Nice pose, I like the head band it gives the shot character. Would like to see a color version.

I agree with redjulep about the eyes, she appears to be squinting in the picture and having her open her eyes more might make it look more natural, I also realize it may be a very natural look for her in which case why change who she is.

I love the tones on this one, as well as the clarity. It's a beautiful portrait. The girl's expression is a bit puzzling. She may be just squinting against the light, but it looks like she might be getting ready to cry, too. Regardless, it's a very good photo.

I love all the repeating lines and the small strip of sky on the side. What doesn't work quite so well IMO is the texture on the wall behind the door. A bit of Gaussian blur in that area might really help pop this?

This is really cute, very surreal looking. I find myself rather enjoying the feel of this. Nice work.
