Comment by Jutilda: ROFL Great shot. I like the DOF very much. I think I'd crop a bit more off of the bottom. I like how the cigar band mimics the flag behind it. Nicely done.
Comment by mandyturner: I love the angle, but the focus is a little soft for my taste on this one. I love how the blue ribbon stands out, it contrast well with the straw hat! Great subject.
Comment by ubique: Beautiful, timeless portrait. The soft, ethereal feel is perfect for the subject, and the composition/crop gives it an intimacy that is also apposite. 9.
Comment by pixieland: This has a lovely old fashion feel. I think it could have been improved with some reflected light bounced back into her face to enhance her beauty even more. I love the pose and the softness of the scene.
