Blue

Yes it's very blue, but it's missing the wow factor. There just isn't a reason to look at it. A smooth backgound would work better because the texture is too distracting and it would make the plate stnd out more, but even then it's just a plate with a button on it.

Very nice! I like the yellow theme created by her shirt and the flowers. The deeper DOF works here and she looks comfortable. THe sun on her head is a distraction, but not that bad.

Try ore shallow of a DOF to make the model stand out and try to eliminate the distracting part of the sky on the upper left. She looks uncomfortable again, try more natural poses maybe? Or shoot her when she isn't expecting it?

I like the flowers in the foreground to break up the monotony of the all black dress, but the pose looks a little uncomfortable and ridged. She has great eyes. Accenting them and making them the focus of the photo might really work well. Nice shot.

I didn't hit this one in voting, but would have given it a 5 or 6. Composition and B&W are great. I can't tell if you used too much USM or not enough, but the detail/texture just isn't there as I'd like to see it. Also, there is some specs or something making noise in the upper left part. Better detail and clean up the noise and I'd give it an 8.

Good job!

Not well taken and not interesting or attractive. Very plain and blah.
