The fact that the focus is soft and there is grain makes me think you didn't have enough light. I also think the white line is distracting. The composition is interesting. I think it needs to be reshot, but there's potential there.

Coming from the "Want Comments?" thread. Several things jump out at me in this photo. The eyes, while they have sensational catchlights seem unnaturally lightened, particularly the eye-whites. They may not be as it appears she is facing a very bright lightsource and the white could just be reflecting heavily, but it's detracting for me. The hindu mark on her forhead seems photoshopped in. I realize it's probably not, but something about it seems off. Is it a stick-on? Aren't they usually added with pencil? I would also clone out the tiny portion of the flower showing on the gown at the bottom of the frame. Lastly, her hair gets lost in your dark background. I wonder if a B/W conversion would mask some of these elements?

Coming from the "Want Comments?" thread. You're probably fed up with "doesn't meet the challenge" type comments, especially since the challenge is over, but I'm curious what your take on this was in terms of surrealism. It is a lovely photo, and I like the interplay of shadow and light. You exposed the sky and the snow perfectly, which isn't an easy task, so A+ there.

I like the composition, but it seems a bit too contrasty for the homey feeling I think it should evoke. If you didn't bump the contrast, perhaps this is the result of sharpening?

ETA - Found this photo from the "Want Comments?" thread.

Coming from the "Want Comments?" thread. I agree that that this is very nearly perfecly executed. It does bother me that the top wing is clipped; or more accurately, that is seems to have been clipped inadvertantly. absolutely terrific colors and great focus.

Hmmm, ...my first thoughts were amusement park. Then I read the title. Then got creeped out a little bit. Scrolled down so I couldn't see the photo while typing this comment. ;)

Coming from the "Want Comments?" thread. Really sweet portrait of your doggy. Makes me miss my own. I love the liquid quality of a dog's eyes and you've captured that well here. Very nice DOF and nice textures: the dog's wet fur, the cruchiness of the snow on his coat. Lovely.

Coming from the "Want Comments" thread. Very nice BW conversion. My eye keeps going back to the hot spot on the ground, and I'm not sure if I think that's a good thing or not. Beautiful sky and strong sense of lines.
