 This is a neighbor of ours who enjoys being in front of the camera. I asked her to give me this look so I could bring out the feeling of today's teenagers.

Just a quick comment (read the cc forum).

The image is a bit on the soft side, I personally don't like that much. The lighting of the body is okish, but the differences in lighting of the face are a bit too big, the right side is fine, but the left side has shadows that don't look nice. Combined with the facial expression it looks (on the left) like someone who has been hit on the eye or didn't get much rest in her sleep.
The face and body language say "bored", don't like that. (scored it a 6)

I love this shot. I particularly like how the black pants blend into the background. The facial expression and pose in general are great. I think the wide framing works well. Good work. 8

i scored this high........ i enjoy the mood presented....... the back in black is good for this shot, it isolates and frames - as it should. The facial expression, has typical blase' features for a young girl, which are always interesting and captured so well here. The shimmer on her eyes, though a minimal part of the image, draw me in...... I think this is a super shot.

I really like your composition and use of light/dark. Her expression takes away from the shot for me though-she looks completely bored.
