Nice composition and lighting, but the image seems quite underexposed overall.

Angelic?!

Nicely composed, but I think there's a bit too much light on the nose and not enough on the rest of the face

I'm not sure I understand the relation between the 3 elements here, but it must be something I'm not privy to, so, no penalty for my lack of understanding. Regardless of their relationship, I think the placement of them in the frame is awkward and distracting. The angle for the portrait is not very flattering either, we're kind of looking up his nose.

Nice choice of subject and use of soft focus, but I wish there were a bit more contrast in the flower. Still, I think this is one of the better images in this challenge

I like the effect and its use here, but I'm not sure about the placement of the rings, they might look better closer together or maybe an element is missing, like a yearbook or something.

The soft focus is well done, but there seem to be some noise and artifacts here that seriously detract froom the image

I love the glowing reds here along with the soft curling form. The soft focus adds a dreamy quality that just wouldn't be possible if this were sharp
