"Rock On!" looks like it does really fit into the 80's challenge. Nothing says the eighties like jean jackets and crazy rolled up pants. I had almost forgotten about rolling up my pants until I saw this shot.

The image itself is very different, I think that the burning of the background altered the image a bit. I would be curious to see a before and after picture, just to see how the lighting hit the backdrop originally. The lighting is very interesting, it feels like a funny glow. The glow is on of my favorite parts of this work. Its like the image has a vibe of its own. I have no idea what tape case she is holding but it didn't effect my vote, because it look liked the right era to me. Good placement of the subject and use of a different pose to grab attention. Keep up the good work, I look forward to your entries.

This looks a lot like my daughter's friend! Very interesting overall, the darkness around the edges is a good idea but the way it was done, leaving the edges every soft compared to the rest of the shot leaves me feeling it's off for some reason. A 6

Sorry, the backround burning is just too much for my taste, I pretty much don´t care how bad the backround was before the darkening but I can´t imagine it being worse than it is right now... Not trying to offend anyone but when I give a score of 3 I want to explain why, I figure you at least deserve that.

The shading around her is a bit distracting. I can still see the sharper edges so the shading looks fake on my screen. Other than that I like the image.
