good selective dof... turning down brightness and or bumping the contrast might help a bit as well with the exposure

The expression has won me over. The background was disenchanting me until I saw her eyes. This is a very humbling, poignant photograph that is very strong with subject but the background is a little bright. You'll have to take a 7

Good shot.

I find the background a bit too bright. Decreasing the saturation of the yellows would take care of this. It would also take a bit of colour out of the monkey's eyes though. Still that is my preference. Others may disagree.

I might have cropped this to be more like a portrait or head shot of the money, I think its face is the most compellling part of the composition and frankly, those nipply things weird me out!

This one is just a bit too washed out, I think I would have adjusted the contrast to make it darker. Nice capture though of a wild animal, with a great facial expression.

Nice focus, but the nipples or whatever they are are so distracting I'd have probably chosen to crop them out. Nice expression as well.
