Simple and clean, colors are subtle and enjoyable yet it really lack contrast, a little push in the contrast in photoshop would have made this perfect.

It's for a car commercial right? :D

Fabulous entry with a fabulous lighting set up. Love the details on the lips and the focus as well though I must the nose and the teeth are a little bit distracting, but I wouldn't want to change the angle just to get rid of the nose and if the mouth was cloed it wouldn't have been this sexual. SO I pretty much think this is a perfect exemple of stock photography, and if I was a member (It's not my fault) I would have certainly given this a 9

Woot 69!! That's the best ever, now what can I say?

Thanks for the helpful comments, especially about cropping the bottom. You are too right about that.

Picture of the Past

The flash is kind of unecesary and makes this shot seem dull, the background... well it does have an interesting tecture but I have to say it doesn't fit the subject very well, as for the B&W, I don't see why you used it here. But well it does meet the challenge.

Nice framing but lacks a real point of interest

Breaking New Ground

:D Fun outake on the challenge, the image itself is good but I really think it would look much better in B&W. But truly it doesn't fit the challenge, unless this is new ground for you for which I will not lower your score and rate the image itself.

Well I like the greenery and the abstractish blur on the grass though it is a little too obvious that this was taking from a mooving car. But I like the composition and the way the dead trees blend well into the houses. And that bumps up your score.

Definetly one of my favorites in the challenge, the lighting, the smoke, the ripples in the fabric makes this incredibly theatrical and beautiful. The composition is great as well, and I absolutly love that smoke. Though I do have a suggestion, maybe making the contrast higher so that the plastic rose and mask seem less plastic.

Where?

Pretty lanscape, I would like to know if you used an IR filter or if you created this photoshop if so how?

Though the scenery is well there are a lot of things wrong here, for one thing it looks as if you took this picture just for the landscape and not so it could meet the challenge. The horizon is too tilted and I think maybe having a better angle would have been better, for exemple seeing more of the house and making Waldo blend better into the trees.

Though it is a good image.
