Blue hair? Funny eye?? Not on my monitor... This image is beautiful. Very 40's glam IMO. Technically it's not as sharp as it could be and there is some noise. But the technical imperfections ADD to the image. Good job!

Hmmm...it does show a slight amount of blue when i print it on my printer. I'll have to have one printed through the lab and check that one. My monitor is set for the lab.

Well the blue wouldnt show if it wasnt there now would it?

good composition though and placed almost a 100 positions higher than mine:p

Was short on time and missed this. It's way too good to be down here and should have been on the front page at least. I slightly odd artifact on the hair but this is so strong otherwise. I love tha angle and rich colours - so rarely seen in wedding shots.

Oh my - I really really hope this does well - what a stunning image, I love a picture with a story and a mood. I wonder what she is waiting for.

This is a great composition that is between abstract and real photo. Either way would have been OK, but, the blue in her hair and the grain as is are a little distracting.

I really like this shot, but I think the color is just too saturated for my taste. I'd like to see it with normal coloring. The angle of the shot is good, nice location, and I like the woman's position. 7

I like the subject and framing, but I think I'd prefer this with the natural colors of the scene.
07/04/2004 01:08:25 PM
I really like the base image itself - the pose, , the rotation, the way the walls form such a strong compositional framing, the texture and play of light on the dress, the expression on her face - but the colour (lighting? post processing?) doesn't appeal - I don't like the blue highlights in her hair nor the green tinge to the shadows on her dress.

great composition, but the editing looks a bit off. I can see some blue streaks in her hair
07/03/2004 04:01:05 PM
Very lovely setting and rich colors on dress and wall. I would have liked to see a little light reflected on right hand side of face, neck, chest, and arm. The shadows are just slightly to strong for my taste. A 9.

beautiful image spoiled by the strange blue coloring in her hair and the strange eye, a pity.
07/03/2004 03:07:43 AM
I like the colors. Cool shot.
07/02/2004 11:42:07 PM
A truly artistic representation.
07/02/2004 08:56:22 AM
A brilliant creation.
07/01/2004 10:44:20 PM
Great composition, but over-processed. When black hair turns blue, you've gone to far!
07/01/2004 06:19:47 PM
This one keeps drawing me back for another look. It is the graphic design of the picture that I find so attractive. And its mystery.
07/01/2004 02:59:49 PM
A bit oversaturated or contrasted, there are color noises creeping in. Otherwise, great angle and i like the overall feel of the lines.

this great photograph has tones of the artist Jack Vetriano.
Well done
a 10 from me
i hope this does well for you
good luck

love the texture on the night dress. Good composition too. Would have been fantastic with a bit of motion blur
07/01/2004 12:02:07 AM
Perfect, the colour, the composition, the saturation, A 10!
