Great picture - the chocolate and strawberry both look very appetizing. The lighting and composition are really good. I think a different color background would have really made this picture a 10.

Very well taken, the plain strawberry looks delicious but the chocolate on the other strawberry looks wet.

New House

Nice clear picture with great color. The DOF seems a bit flat - the mountains seem very close behind the house and since I recognize this house as one in Alamosa I know the mountains are actually quite a bit in the distance. We must be neighbors - I live in La Jara!

Your portrait is very pretty. The soft focus is nice; however, something about the mouth doesn't look quite right - the upper lip seems to blend into the face. Also, I think a different outfit would have been better - the pose, lighting and focus is so romantic and ethereal that a soft sligtly ruffled dress would have added more to the picture than a tux like suit.

Very beautiful. I think if you had cloned out the earring just visible on her right side it would have taken away a distraction. I had to study the picture for a while to figure out what it was, at first I thought perhaps she had her chin pierced on the side or something. If the background were a bit more blurred it would also put more emphasis on the person.

Very, very lovely. Your picture is my pick for a ribbon! I think if the ribbons in her hair and the rose were the same color it would make this portrait even more stunning.

Self-portrait With Flowers

Beautiful portrait. The colors and focus are wonderful and I love the smile! I do think it would have been even better without the flowers.

Quite a nice portrait! I like the drape over the shoulder, it goes well with the lip stick. I think a different color backdrop would have made all the difference in this picture - it is so similar to the skin tone that the person doesn't show up as well as they should. I think if the head were turned slightly more towards the camera so one could see the other eye more would have also made this even better. Or perhaps, a full profile where you couldn't see the other eye at all. However, I think I'd prefer to see more of the other eye. The colors and soft focus are lovely.

Her eyes are lovely but she looks very sulky around her mouth. I like the pose but the lighting seems to put too much emphasis on her hair.

Really an interesting picture. The model has a lot of character in her face; however, the pose you are using places emphasis on her feet which look so big in relation to the rest of her. If you cropped this off just below her hands and didn't have it look quite so smooth (neat image?) it would be stunning.
