This is a neat concept, but I wonder how a different composition might look? Perhaps experimenting with some unique angles and POV's might make give this photo more impact.
Great, great location - such a sweet feel to it. The burst of gold from the leaves was brought out nicely, as was the bits of moss here & there. The pose is nice, and the expression is thoughtful & contemplative without being morose. The horizontal orientation does give a bit of claustrophobic feel to it, but I just love the texture of the stone walls so I'll happily endure it. Nicely done! -- 8 --
Very nice! I'm giving this a 10, but I think it would be even better (well I guess you can't get better than 10) if she was facing the camera and centered in the composition..of course that would change the mood and goal of the portrait so never mind :)
nice and private. Love the expression. Can't decide if I like the flip-flops or not. The centered composition works as well as the blue/red contrasts. 8
