Into The Night

my feeling is most of the black space on the left is unnecessary. My eye is also drawn more to the candle which makes your prop more the subject of interest than the person's face.

Love Bunnies

lovely use of dof. great clarity in the woman's eyes. bunny's eyes to woman's eyes works well, but interest could have been made with bunny's eyes to woman's cheek too. Either way, you have shown an emotional closeness.

nice clariy, expression, pose, and dof. a bit close. perhaps a less wide focal length to keep the facial features true to life. good overall.

Portrait In White

Comment:
a bit too close, and a bit too much of a side view. profiles work great if you can see the other cheek, but so that the nose doesn't "cut" the line of the cheek, so that you can see the other eye.

Veronique

Comment:
nicely done. I am getting a bit of a green hue and not sure if you intended that or not. not major.. but slightly, esp. in the face.
wonderful eyes, and good position of her hands. the hand she is resting on could be turned slightly to show the side of her hand to the camera... more feminine. backs of hands are more masculine.

great use of light.. lovely expression... really like the antique/old fashioned feel. Little girls just love to dress up.. in all era's. This makes it timeless, and becomes a portrait of all little girls. nice job! :)
