Photo taken at the St. Bernard de Clairvaux ancient Spanish Monestary. It wasn't until after I viewed the pictures later that I realized that this photo invokes some elements found in Maxfield Parrish's Paintings.

This almost looks surreal and other worldly. I love it. If only the tops of the arches weren't cut off, it'd be perfect.

Too much lost in the shadows. Great attempt at a classic composition.

The framing, crop and editing are flawless. This image represents entirely the beauty and uniqueness possible with just the right eye... Very well done!

I think the dreamer is getting lost in the background.

What a beautiful photo! The composition and the way you worked with the lighting, shadows, and angles gives a nice ethereal feel to it. Deep DOF works well with the look and it appears you've managed to get some good color saturation despite the bright sky. Nice work.......9

Some perspective correction would have helped this shot (in my opinion). Nice atmosphere though!

You did a great job with a rather challenging light situation - there is detail in the shadows AND the sunny parts. The dreamy outfit/pose/look of your model is well suited to the romantic looking surroundings. Well done. 8

Simply stunning. The soft focus works well here! The little girl is perfect for the shot!

I see where you were going with this, and it's nearly there, but there is something abnout the perspective, the angle, that takes away from the subtle posture of the child, yes that's it there is too much that distract from the child.
