Greetings from the Critique Club! :)
My first impression when I look at this photo: This is a really cute photo!
Relation to the Challenge: This picture is appropriate for the challenge and meets the requirements. I generally give a “bonus” point to pictures which have a really strong tie to the challenge, which this one doesn’t, but it does communicate the title of the challenge well. You wouldn’t be able to guess the challenge from the photo, but knowing what the challenge is, I clearly see it in your photo.
Composition: I do like the composition of this photo. The lines of the hat and of the girl’s face are right on the lines of the rule of thirds. There isn’t a clear focal point at one of the thirds intersection points, but I don’t miss it here, because of the strong lines. I love that you focused on the mirror, and that the girl’s actual face is out of focus.
Background: Again, a real winner here. The black background in the mirror is perfect. You don’t want to be distracted by anything, and you aren’t. Perfect.
Photographic Technique: Here’s my only complaint on this shot; harsh flash lighting. Her right cheek is just about blown out in real life, and is mildly overexposed in the mirror. There could be a smidge more contrast, but it’s not bad by any means. Everything else is spot on in this photo: focus and sharpness, depth of field is perfectly done, all great.
Post-Processing: No hints on what you did, and your photo doesn’t have any telltale signs, so whatever you did, you did it just right.
Overall Opinion: Well done. I think this could have been a ribbon winner if the lighting was a little softer. Your score and placement are a testament to the quality of this photo. I’m still really impressed that there’s no reflection in the mirror of anything except the girl.
Finally, I'd like to ask you to consider critiquing the critique. :) Just as you're here to learn about photography, I'd like to learn about giving better critiques. If you have any comments, even if it's just "Thanks!" please drop me a PM.
Good Luck with your future entries!
---Andrew

| I believe the image has to ave some element of "celebration" in it without the Title |

| Soooooo cute! Is this JRTodd? I love the look on her face. I would probably adjust the levels to boost the contrast a bit but this is so great that it's really hard to pinpoint anything wrong with the composition and image in general! |
