This is a well-designed piece of artwork. It's a pity the grain/noise is so pronounced as it really spoils the sharpness and clarity of what is basically so good.

I like the soft feel and colours. Part of the shadow in the middle/left is not consistent with the rest of the image - where does it come from?

I really like this. Smooth lines soft tones and the grain which enrich the photo.
