Hi Shailesh,

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Congratulations on a very nice photo. I see here a lovely girl in a flamboyant pose that still looks natural. it is full of life and joy and it makes me happy to just look at it!

The cropping is also effective, for it gets us close enough to see her face and eyes clearly, but is far enough away to capture the cute pose. I also like the amounts of dark and light tones and how they build the photo. The background is intriquing and adds to the photo considerably.

I suppose my biggest question is "why blue?" I'm not sure the blue tone adds any personality or mood to the shot, so I just wonder why it's there. Perhaps if she were sad?

Anyway, nice shot and thanks for the opportunity!

Really lovely idea! I love the flowers on this interesting background. I do kind of wish that left flowere were as clear and focused as the right one, though.

I love the juxtaposition of these two flowers. The diagonal "line" connecting the two works nicely, though it seems like the frame should be just a bit lower to accommodate more of the lower right flower. Nice work, super clarity and engaging photo.
