If you made the background lighter, I think the figures would be better defined - nice shot, though - a possible CD cover

I can't help drawing a comparison to the popular National Geographic photo of the Afghani girl. Without that comparison, your picture would rate better with me. It's a bit inconsistent to have her with a burqa-like shawl and lip gloss and streaked hair. The catch lights are kinda big. A fine portrait if not for such strong resemblance to the NG pic.

cool spooky feel - I rated this like you intended the graininess etc (if you didn't, you'll not do well on future challenges, but you probably know that...)

politicallly speaking I'm with you - smal size makes it seem blurry, or at least lacking resolution for good detail or texture

cute picture! - seems to be a little grainy, and would have liked to see a wider range of tones on the skin (highlights vs shadows)

a pretty sky and beautiful reflections - I would prefer to have another subject in the foreground to add to the composition
