| If I had voted this challenge I would have been your 7th 10. This is a fantastic shot. As far as the redhead breaking hearts, LOL both pair of those mischievous eyes, here in a few years are gonna be heart breakers. I hope you are preparing yourself for it. Coming a father of a 16 year old.. |

Critique Club Review:
Color Saturationa and Hue are very good. The skin tones are very well done. Brightness and contrast are good, although the whites of the dresses are right at burn-out in a couple of areas.
Focus and depth of fied are excellent. Everything that should be nice and sharp, is.
The liquid or wetness of the hair, is a bit odd, and distracts a little from the photo. Makes you wonder why two girls appear to be lying in a pool of water. It also flattens and discolors the hair a bit. A tiny bit wider shot so that the shoulders were not cut off, would be interesting, but then was there enough hair to carry it?
Overall a very good picture. As for the score, I think you have already hit on the issue. It has already been done with more girls and more hair, by scalvert. Had it not been done before, I think you would have made top ten. Voters are funny that way. |

Hey Jeffrey, good job (as always)! You know I love the red hair (and can't forget the gorgeous brunettte too). I really like the diagonal you have going too. I really like the big grin vs the shy smile.
Much congrats on a top 20.
Now ... show us the other contenders (after vacation, of course)!

| Jeff - Congrats on the great finish. You have two very pretty models to work with (they must have got it from your wife!) I love the tribute to scalvert's shot. |

Gotta' love the hair here. Great job on this - hard for a shot like this to not put a smile on one's face - it did mine!
Only nit here is the area of the red hair just above her forehead - seems to soft in comparison to the rest of the shot. Red hair - curly/wavy red hair - my fav. |

| Well, there are those beautiful girls we have come to know and love! this is really nice. I like the lighting and focus, and the expressions are showing us quite a bit about their personalities. |

So I am reading through the score thread and I think I need to be swayed by the discussion (even irrationally so). I am not quite sure if this was a setup shot so I must DNMC it and give it a 2. Odds are these girls did not even realize they were lying next to each other or that someone was standing over them taking their picture. So I would have to lean towards the fact that this is more of a caught candid rather than a planned portrait which obviously does not meet the challenge. In fact so much so that I am going to call this shot up for validation in hopes that they will change the rule about not disqualifying DNMC images. I am just totally amazed that someone would enter an image like this into a challenge of this type.
ETA - bumping up. ;) |

| Scalvert? Looks like his kids. Good setup, lighting is a bit harsh/artificial looking though |
