Looks overly neatimaged... Not enough texture left in her skin to give her character...

I like it, the clean white look is refreshing

IMO, her face looks too unatural.....way to smooth.

Sorry to bring this up but I feel I owe you to be honest, the skin looks very overprocessed, she looks like a plastic doll and not a real person and what a shame, she looks very attractive and a couple of blemishes only give her character wich is what I feel is missing in this picture. Nice lighting.

Too much noise reduction for my liking. The skin appears waxy and artificial.

Seems over processed.

Ouch, that is over processed! Bet I'm not the forst to say that.
Composition is OK. Smile perhaps a little forced.

Nice shot but too much neat imaging for me. Great lighting, strong composition and great skin tones.

Pretty lady, and beautiful soft lighting. However, I don't like the overprocessed look of her skin.

Good skin tone .. ice

the eyes look to photoshopped (maybe just the makeup) nice shot though! perfect for the challenge.

I think the overall lighting is good as well as the composition.

But the over use of a NI-like technique and the erasing of every single wrinkle as completely ruined this image for me. Portraiture isn't about smoothe, plastic skin, but about capturing the essence of a person.

Nice picture, the smile seems a bit forced.

Nice composition, but a bit too much Neat Image
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The skin is way too soft imho.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/17/2006 10:35:32 AM
picture looks too artificial... perhaps to much NI?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Eyes and lashes seem a bit over processed... other than that I like the soft skin tones in this pic.

Beuatiful blue eyes. The skin is a little too soft for my taste, but that is a personal preference. I think I would prefer it short lit (with the main light on the side of the face away from the camera). I like the composition, although I might have left a little more room below her, showing a little more of her shoulders. Very nicely done and a lovely model.

Probably too much Neat Image here...the blue eye on the right is a little too much in shadow, so perhaps a different pose would have bought out those blue eyes of this beautiful lady a lot more...nice work though

the eyes look almost painted
