I think with a little more saturation and sharpness, this would be fantastic.

She looks so young, but so "tough" Gloves are a little big. :-)

Excellent choice. The tight crop works for me.

Give her a helmet. But seriously, I'd like to see more of her environment; less of her.

Not happy with the crop. We need to see more of the environment around her. I like the pic though.

This is a nice picture, but I would have preferred that the head and skateboard weren't cut off.

Very good shot, motion stopped almost completely. Suggestion: capture all of the subject (skateboard and top of head cut off)

Cute, but a bit closely cropped... and also why "Venus"? That's a bit creepy, since references to venus are usually erotic!

I like this picture a lot but it doesn't screem 'City Life' at me. And you can't buy my vote with just a pretty face ;-)

Love the capture of this pretty girl..

i think the cropping is a little too tight on this. i'd have liked to see the rest of her head and skateboard sneak in there. might give more of a sense of action, as well.

crop lost the top of her head and the board... a bit back and this is a wonderful shot
Canon EOS-10D

Perfect title. Beautiful girl...love the concentration and determination you captured. I can't tell if this needs a touch more saturation or focus...something's just a little bit off around her face. 9

You zoomed in a little too close - it needed the top of her head and her skateboard.

Well done! Just the right softness for this shot and good composition. I think it's okay to cut off part of the head, I do it myself sometimes to draw attention to the face.

This is definitely a cute photo! She looks like she is sidewalk surfing with some intensity :) I think that a little more breathing room for her in this photo would be a nice improvement, however. I would like to see the entire skateboard as well as the top of her head. = 6 - jmsetzler

Really great shot. Just maybe there could have been a little more of the top of her head, but I'm sure that this took enough effort without worring about the top of her head. Well Done!!! Good image quality too.

What a doll. I never could do skate boards, snow board or wind surf. Go girl!!
Nice action shot.

Ug. Cropped too tight. This would be a good picture otherwise.
