::: Greetings from Critique Club :::
Hi, as requested, here is an indepth critique of your submission.
First Impression - the most important one:
Interesting image, but not sure green is the best color for it.
Composition:
The crop could stand to be a bit tighter, but the composition is not bad for a portrait type image.
Subject:
Well defined, we definitely see the subject.
Technical (Color, focus, and light):
Color: as I stated in first impression, green may not have been the best color for this image. Green on people, just gives the impression of sickliness.
Focus: Decently sharp. A bit more Unsharp Mask may have helped some.
Light: The important parts of the image are lit, but the lighting becomes a bit flat in the face.
To grow its vote?:
Overall, it was a tough competition and a 5.3 is a respectable score. I still have to stick with not using green on people though :-)
Summary:
You do some good work, looking at your profile.
Hope to see more from you soon,
Leroy |

| What I like about this is that the light looks like a snake, especially with the green overcast and her expression. |

The basic concept of this image is very good. The greenish color gives it a "night vision" look. Yours was a valient attempt at the challenge and is proper light painting technique, unlike many, many others.
I tried something similar, though in standard colors, but could not get the light painting the way I wanted it so did not enter. Mine was of a heart shaped pillow given to open heart surgery patients and signed by well wishers. I wanted to light paint to simulate the escape of the human soul should the patient not survive. I just could not get light patterns that "worked". Your image suffers in the same way as mine where the light painted over your attractive model's left eye is more of a distraction than anything else. You got the technique down but this implementation, like mine was, comes up a little short. |

| A little *too* much going on here for me. I'd prefer for *something* to be the main focal point, and stand out from the rest. |

| This is quite cool, reminds me of something straight out of "The Grudge". It really is missing a title |
