I just love the "moment" between her and the horse... pure love and trust! Guess I will get a horrible score... but so be it! This is straight from the camera - didnt crop ... only sharpened and "auto contrast" in picasa.

not sure...but if you had added a gradient to the girls face I think it might have toned down the flair of light from the sun...nice shot otherwise...

The composition works quite well, but the lighting seems a bit harsh.

Lovely image, very intimate atmosphere but the highlights, especially the important ones in her hair and face are a little blown

Great moment captured.

Great composition but the sun on the face appears a little to bright.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

oversharpened, The time of day you captured this is not the best. The blown out highlights is the killer here. 6

Title says it all, and that can be seen in the eye contact. Girl's face is a bit blown out, but tough lighting conditions.
03/15/2009 10:17:05 PM
Nice shot. A bit hot on the human's face. Great eye on the horse.

Such a clean, sharp photo with two perfect models certainly is a gem.

bit overexposed imo

Everyone is probably saying "horse whisperer"... Nice indimate shot, a little overblown on the girl's face

Sweet! I like the two eyes here.

One day she'll look at a boy like that and then you'll know the true definition of trust. Nice photo.

03/13/2009 08:41:29 PM
sweet, love the reflection in the horses eye
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The lights in the face are blown out, which is a bit distracting, as is that tiny band of green and orange in the bottom right.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 01:45:36 PM
Good depth of field, the background looks really nice.

good emotion in this shot from her look and expression
  Photographer found comment helpful.

a little over exposed in places, but nice composition and well expressed emotion
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I'm not a horse person myself (I'm a cat lover, actually) but this is a sweet shot. I do have to make a nitpick about the blown highlights on her face, however. Midday sun is tough. There are some good adjustment techniques using layers, that can help pull in some of those highlights if they are not totally blown.

Great connection portrayed in this photo.

The highlights on her face are a little hot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 03:19:39 AM
tough scene to expose for. Unfortunately you've blown out the highlights on her face which is one area that needs to be exposed properly.

Lovely shot.
