Comment by Toddh:
good work, I like this shot but there are a couple of things I would maybe consider for next time.... I think it would be worthwhile, if possible, to use a woman's hand to hold the purfume. I know that the idea is that you are spraying the purfume to remind yourself of her.... in that case... clean your fingernails... it is quite distracting and takes something away from the shot (in my opinion of course). Now this is nit-pick I know, but do something about the hangnail too..... it is only really minor things but I think they make the difference between a good and a great shot.....
Good Luck, Todd.

So far my favorite of the challenge. Composition, lighting - excellent! Love the capture of the spray - I can almost feel the mist on my skin. I see a ribbon for this one. :-)

This is really nice. The angles of the heads, the smiles. Some more even and perhaps diffused light would make this even better, perhaps, and held just slightly higher to even out the shadows. Still I like this photo's emotive quality.

A good expression (key here over the others who chose not to show). I think the background is an issue here, and also, some light in the eyes would have helped.

Lovely Model:) great expression...does say suprise...I wish the background were different. Either one of more depth...like a resturant? or a park? or just droped out completely like the night or the sky. hope this helped. Good luck!

Bad Points: Grain, not enough to be arty, too much to be nice. The womans head looks strained.
Good Points: Nice composition idea, only let down by the womans pose
Overall Score: 5
