My daughter, Ariel. I am learning to try and take better photos that are sharper and more interesting. I think this is pretty good, even if the post-it notes don't stand out as well as I expected. This was one of the most painful shoots I have ever done. We took nearly a thousand photos and I could not get a good depth of field. TCGuru pointed me in the right direction and I was finally able to get something manageable.

lol great idea. only problem for me here is how posed your model looks. she looks too stiff, some relaxation in her neck might have been nice

Creative, funny and true. This is going to sound stupid, but, my fav part of this image are how well the thought clouds were drawn. They look good. =)Just as a suggestion, might have switched the colors in the picture. Have the post-it notes with all the colors and had your model wear something boring. I find her shirt pulls my focus, and just curious if the colors were reversed, if it would have made the notes pop more. Again, just my .02

I think this shot is o.k. The post its seem out of focus a bit because the camera is focused on the model.

Nice idea, I like the image. Only nitpick is that you can cut little bit from bottom, so the post-it are readable easily. Also, it looks too much NI(or other noise reduction tool).

HA. I was nearly embarresed to admit a few of these cross my minds. Minus the Edward Bella & Jacob ones. I Dream more of Ron, Harry & Hermionie (sp?)! This is a very cute idea though!
