Beautiful shot, good capture of the girl. I like the composition and the dynamics and the softness. The bokeh on the lights does grab a little of it's own attention, but it sets the context for this scene well.
Very nice portrait. The lighting on the face is very good. I think it would look even better with a little cropped off the right side. I like the angles and the pose.
Very pretty eyes, good bokeh if I even know what that is, I like the angle, colors, and lighting - but I think the girl is a bit too centered. I'd be tempeted to crop of some of the right side where the background is dark.
I really like this shot! The highlights in the eyes are a little distracting IMHO and I feel there is to much negative space on the right hand side. I know you wanted to get here hair in but if her hair went down straighter that area could have been cropped harder.
Love this portrait. It looks so natural, like a moment caught in passing, freezing in time a fragment of priceless memory. Your model is beautiful, the tilt feels "right" and the background is fuzzily indistinct and just.... perfect. A winner in my opinion.
A very nice portrait. The background highlights lead the your eye to her eyes. The bright upper left corner of the image is a bit distracting. An 8 from me.
The short definition of Bokeh from KenRockwell.com, which I am using for voting on this challenge: "Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light." Present. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? Somewhat. Incredibly pretty girl, her eyes are amazing. The car headlights are a tad distracting, but the quality of the rest of the out of focus area is nice. This looks like it should be a shampoo ad or something!
I love the soft lighting, and the girl is of course lovely, but I think the background actually distracts from the appeal of the image. Contrast is just too high, especially with regard to the headlights.
wow high contrast red on greens, beautifull model, greak brokeh (if I knew for sure what it was), rich juicy colors, great skin tone. Only minor complaint I can manage to find is that I don't like the color of the shirt. But if thats the biggest complaint I can muster, I wouldn't worry. Keep up the wonder work. 10
Nice job! Definately one of the better entries. You understand the concept and you've captured a redhead. Thats worth an extra point in my opinion! She is cute! Daughter? Girlfriend? Wife? Friend? Tell her you know another great photographer she should meet. :))
Beautiful!! Beautiful model, beautiful eyes, beautiful colors! The green in the background really accentuates her eyes and sets off her hair. I predict this will be way up there. :-)
Absolutely stunning - the clarity of your subject and the fantastic use of contrast and color. Beautifully soft shadowing also. You must live somewhere where it's actually warm!
One of the best I've seen this chalenge. Not the best bokeh, but overall the best image. Would have given it a ten but the eyes look a bit too green. Real or not.
