I originally took this picture for the free study challenge in april but at the end of the month I had gotten bored with it and switched it out. I wasnt gonna enter this challenge but then last night, 3 people told me to submit this picture to this challenge so I did, long time since I entered, my monitor is too light so I guess this looks to dark on other monitors , dont have time to check
I also have this on deviantart

A great image. I have nothing constructive to say. I like the dark tones in the wall with the blueish cast which clash against the bright white of the dress. The pose and the facial expression are subtle but powerful. 10. Adding to favs.
Heida!..seems so long since we've seen you work LOL.. Lovely image with great contrast and lighting. To me its not your best of the year, but definetly good ;).. good luck :)
NIce wedding shot, love the light, b&w need a bit of tweaking but not too bad, great texture, nice dof, nice angle, great comp, emotional, overall a very good job
Processing is good for this type of photo. This is one photo that really suffers from the 640 pixel limit, as your composition is great, but it leaves the model just a little too small. You could compensate by cropping in closer, but it hurts the comp that way too.
Great tones in the dress and skin, but the wall and far back wall are maybe just a little too heavily worked? Something seems odd there anyway.. loss of texture.. a little too dark/light in areas. Not horribly so, but it's something that distracts me from the model for some reason.
very good composition. Its really good to see good compositions, i am sick of seeing flower with shallow DOF shot with 1.4 lense wining ribbons. Hope this photo scores high, since if it scores high people will at least think about putting effort on composition than shooting something stunning but shit on composition part (like shooting flowers with shallow DOFs).
This can only belong to Heida :) Excellent shot as usual, really got a story behind it, and the processing is great as usual. Where are the clouds tho? :P
This photo and the others of yours like it made me want to take my daughters thrift shopping for old wedding gowns so we can go out and get pics like these. Truely unique and inspiring. 10.
Exceptional. I loved it the first go round!!! On second review, I'm upping to a 10. I should have put it in the "perfect" arena in the first place. It truly is stuning on all levels: compositionally, colors wise, lighting, etc. WOWZA!!
Interesting juxtaposition of delicate looking model in a hard environment, but I do wish there would have been eye contact to convey additional emotional response. Good work.
