This image and subject (model) shows great potential without the special effect as it fails to enhance the beauty. Pretending the effect is not there I give you a 6 but would have gone a full 10.
You may disagree with me, and that's okay, but this doesn't meet the spirit of the challenge in my opinion. Plus it appears to have used illegal filters. It sure is an attention grabber, however.
I think the application of the plastic filter cheapens the shot. This has more of a snapshot sense to it than a true portrait. I'd crop out as much of the car door as possible and make her look more natural.
it looks like your model is very beautiful and very photogenic but the surroundings and the effect are not too desirable imo. especially on her face, it resembles something else..
I really do not like this. She is very beautiful and you went and made her look weird. LOL I think people are either going to loe it or hate it. Good luck.
I love the effect the filter has on her hair and her surroundings, but the color it left on her face is annoying. Still very good composition and lighting overall.
Generally, extensive editing like this does not do well in challenges. I think this is the case once again. I see a beautiful model with a great expression and composition, with very nice tones and colors, but I am not personally wild about your choice of filters. Would love to see this before the filtering. I think it might have contended for a ribbon. Good luck. <6>
I think you ruined a really pretty picture with whatever filter you used. I'm sorry to say that but that is just how I feel. I hope I didn't hurt your feelings with my comment....
looks like you started with a fine shot. I am afraid you didn't end up there. how did you do this? why did you do this? Interesting effect, but it distanced the viewer from an understanding of who the model is rather than bringing us closer.
I think you probably had a decent portrait going on this. I'm not a big fan of the plastic look filter you've used. The filter uins the shot for me and that's why I gave it low marks. JMO.
This looks like it would be a nice shot without the liquid/plastic filter. I think I would like it better. The idea is interesting, just not digging the editing. Just my taste though. Nice attempt at thinking outside the box. :-) She looks very pretty but hard to see her true self behind the plastic. Maybe that's what you were going for though.
I am not sure this effect add anything to this picture. Looks like a very good picture from the start destroyed by filter abuse. Subject has a nice pose and intriguing look.
I think this would have been excellent before the "effect" you chose or maybe with a different effect that still allowed you to view the features. Oh well, trying new approaches is fun.
Notta, not a fan of this style. I would of absolutely loved to see this photo without the special effects. Black and Blue one of my favorites to see, I may of even scored my first 8 with this photo.
