Nice picture. Kind of bordering on not really following the challenge.

Nice story here -- showing a slice of life. Much more about that than the technicals.

Hello from the Critique club

An appealing image that contributes well to the free challenge

You have taken full advantage of the expert editing freedom with this very creative entry, well done. Both shots have been carefully taken with great attention to detail and lighting and blended together to form something very unique. I find the eye, the hand and the tear all very well executed and convincing, it works well. I’m not quite so convinced with the left hand, I like the way you have the eyebrow hairs over her hand but they would have worked better had they been the same black as the rest of her eyebrow. All in all, I think you’ve done an excellent job.

I’m sorry you didn’t score higher and those sub 5’s cannot be justified, you certainly deserved to. I’m glad you overcame your procrastination and decided to enter such a creative image, thank you Lydia.
