This is my favorite of all the entries. I'm not usually a big kid,kitten,flower fan. But this is exceptional work. Soft skin tone, bright eyes, stopped motion... Nice work.
I am amazed by this photo. At first it struck me as being a sort of a snap shot. But a split second later I noticed the blue eyes, thn theway they echoed the blue in the frock and other subtle blues in the photo. Next I noticed the porecelain quality of the skin and the soft, glowing light. And finally I noticed that all the colors were muted and had a subtle cyan cast. Even the skin had greenish tinges in places. That' s normally a pet peeve but because all of the photo is subtly that color it works. I'm not crazy about the water; but maybe that wasn't optional. Beautiful shot.
Are her eyes really that color? This photo looks overprocessed to me. The skin tones look too smooth and the eyes do not look like a natural color of blue.
Her eyes are extremelly beautiful. The only thing is that the rest of the image looks a bit dull, her skin for example, it looks like a rubber character, kinda fake!
Dodging and saturating the eyes can really liven up a shot, however, I feel that in this instance the eyes are unnaturally processed relative to the rest of the composition, giving this otherwise pretty girl a rather frightening appearance.
