nice portrait, but probably the wrong challenge. sure, this probably could make the cover of a fashion magazine, but there's a HUGE difference between portraiture and photojournalism...
I cant deny this is a superb portrait shot but what jounalistic story is it telling me? I want to vote high for the photographic technique and skill but low for the "photojurnalism" bit. Not normally a stickler for the rules I'm feeling guilty leaving a middle, cop out score of 5, way lower than the technical merits of the photo deserve. Sorry, I love the shot.
CAme back to this and realised this was supposed to be the cover of Elle. Upped to a 9
I'm wavering on this one between I really like it and it bothers me. Perhaps that's a sign of a good journalistic shot. I think it is because her right eye is the sharpest point of focus and it seems to be following me, creeping me out a tiny bit! It does look like something we'd see in a fashion mag, but I think that single point of focus needs to be massaged just a bit.
Don't like the red patch in the top corner ... LOVE everything else about this. The pale greens and pinks sit back and let that beautiful face take center stage. Superb.
WOW this would have been a top ten in the color portrait challenge possible a ribbon but in this challenge I think it will suffer still a fantastic image and a 10 from me.
this shot is lovely. the red bit of the background in the top left corner is a bit distracting, I like the softness and even though the well structured skin. good one. I hope DPCers will see the photojournalism in this one. Good luck
NOt photojournalism in the sense I would think but more a fashion photo. Still, well done and she is lovely!!! Nice lighting and the skin and eyes are very pretty.
