Critique Club:
composition: the subject is placed nicely in the frame, her shoulder leads the eye right up to her face and eyes
color: a little flat and orange, this could have been caused by the white balance. that or the lighting in the room was a bit flat
contrast: nicely controlled contrast. nothing overpowers the women, thus making her the main subject and the first thing our eyes go to
focus: focus is good, clearly on the subject of the image
depth of field: an increased or shallower depth of field would have made this better to blur the background person more.
lighting: pretty flat, either due to weird lighting or strong flash.
other: overall, its a good portrait of a very pretty girl with a strong smile. But, the lighting, artifacting (see yospiff's comment) and distracting background all degraded the beauty of the image. i think with a little more practice, you can really set your portraits apart from the pact, and get your score higher. keep trying, and i look forward to seeing you improve. If you ahve any more questions, feel free to PM me.
