What a gorgeous photo! I can actually see very little wrong witt this photo. Her litstick as mentioned by most of the commenters is a bit off color tothe gorgeus reds of the background. I think if she had put on a gorgeous matte red lipstick this photo would have been up in the top 10.
nice shot, too bad her lipstick is pink, not red,somewhat stands out in a not-so-good way. (or even a different colour may have been better, blue?). 7/10
Wow. Red indeed. I like the expression you captured. In my mind's eye I wonder how it would look if she were also wearing red lipstick instead of the bright pink (at least that's how it's coming acorss on my screen). Overall, well done.
Looks like Geena Davis...but I bet that is not the first time you have heard that. Great shot with all the red, but I do wish the lip stick had been a more consistant shade to match the rest of the image. Otherwise great image. Beautiful model, nice composition with very good lighting. I hope it does well for you. Good Luck. <8>
This is a great picture, the only thing I would have changed is the color of her lipstick. It just is too pink for the background color. Maybe a darker autum color. Great setup though!!!
Pretty smile, and such a clear shot. Nice lighting and composition. The feather boa doesn't quite go with the background...I would have chosen a boa that would be a complimentery color. The red blends together too much. Good luck! :)
I think this is a fun shot with the flower and the pose. The red is too much for me, especially since it clashes a little with the lipstick. I wonder how this portrait would be in black and white. Also, it might be nice to pull back a little, her face seems quite large in this frame.
this would have rated much higher with me had the eyes been classically placed, they should follow the angle of the face,and have an equal amount of white each side of the iris, and not look like they are on ends of stalks as is here 6
