This is a great idea that has been executed well. However, the soft focus and flash glare on the book are difficult to overlook.

Interesting image. I like the intelligence/feeling concept presented here, Highlight on Birdsong book is quite distracting.

Great idea, but the quality lacks, 6.

It's diffusion, not osmosis.

Nice idea, but the photo itself really needs work. Pulling the subject away from the wall (and probably figuring out some other way to keep that stack of books on her head) would get rid of the shadows. Also the focus here is off. Smaller aperture, get everything from the cover of the book she is reading back to her face in focus.

a little blurry

Cute concept, the image could be better (lighting, quality, etc.)

Work on white balance. Skin is too orange. A bit more lighting on her face would help change this from a snapshot to a portrait.

cute idea--colors are off and not enough light
11/21/2007 06:02:05 PM
Cute idea. Too bad there's so much noise in the image.
11/21/2007 02:29:08 PM
is that really a book?? intersting shot. focus seems a bit off -- perhaps artifacted from resizing?

no ressolution... just a snapshot... poor quality
11/21/2007 11:22:49 AM
Good idea...but not sharp or well lit, and bit noisy.
11/21/2007 09:04:38 AM
Too bad for the shadows and lack of sharpness. Cute image though.

very cute idea - her facial expression is great and the apple on top is a nice touch - but techicals - white balance, noise levels, and pixelation could really use some adjustments

Very grainy and soft on the focus...
11/21/2007 12:31:37 AM
I think your ISO is too high, looks grainy to me. Funny title of the book.
