Ohmy! This is so BEAUTIFUL! In my opinion it is flawless and more. The reds are so wonderfully Asian, and I also happen to love the way you did the editing -- including and maybe especially the eyes. I think it is also very typically Asian in its "look". Congratulations on a fabulous showing in this very strong challenge!

Honestly you messed up with sharpness a little bit.The halos created around her hand & nose are distracting.Like the background & composition. |
I was going to say exactly the same thing...I think the sharpening and smoothing are a little artificial, but nonetheless you had a personal best and finished well..congratulations |

Very nice. She's cute and you have some great lighting and color in this. My only nitpick is I think you may have pimped her eyes a little too much. They look artificially sharp to me. |

I like globally the portrait, the angle and the warm color, but there's something strange in her eyes (too much dodging ?) and an excessive difference between softened and not softened skin (her nose, ...) |

Whoa! Those eyes! Maybe a little surreal but still nice portrait. |

nice portrait but those eyes are way overdone they look freaky |

Ah, wo ye shuo hanyu. Ta shi hen piaoliang!
Mei nu is right, and so is the light/background. Excellent combo across the board. I'm just a little distracted by the catchlights in the middle of her eyes...Were your flashes triggered by the onboard flash? Either way, a few seconds of cloning would have brought this to 9 territory from me, but now you just get a lowly 8 :P |

Um, those eyes are really disturbing... |

She's absolutely beautiful but her eyes seem to be held unnaturally wide open which lends the image a (presumably unintended) scary air. Lighting is lovely, not sure about the quirky angle; it's something that I've seen work well but doesn't work for me for this pose. |

I think the whites of her eyes look too edited to match the softness/delicateness of the rest of the shot. I like the background stripes. |
|

the eyes seem to be over whitened to me |

Very nice model...To me the eyes look slightly over done. |

Beautiful portrait, beautiful girl. I love the colours, and the way the background lines echo the pose. 10 |

This would have done better had the eyes not been over-done. Also, the skin is plastic like, meaning too much noise reduction used IMO. |

It looks like the eyes have been over sharpened and saturated. Unfortunately it takes away from a good picture. 5 |

looks a bet over processed and this is the only thing stopping me from giving it 10, 8 and very well done, |
|
|

Beautiful but her skin seems a touch over processed (maybe Neat Image?)with her eyes being over sharp. I love the bokeh and the diagonal line created by the tilt of her and her arm. |

Something about her eyes seems very unnatural. Did you dodge the whites?
The lighting is very nice as is the smoothness of the background. |

Excellent composition, I love the angle you have chosen to place the model in the frame. Background really compliments the subject and I really like how soft her skin looks. The eyes are troubling me a little, I really like the makeup that draws you into them but feel your editing may be a little too much on the eyes themselves...hope that makes sense?! Still a 9 from me :o) |
