The colors and composition are very nice here. Love thelines from the frame and even the tripod. A shame about the flash and remote cords and the camera strap. They break the simple and sharp lines of the shot. I think I may have tied them up to have them hidden. Nic ework overall.
I looked at this a second time, and have now commented on it as well, as it is a very good idea, and well taken, so I have now bumped it up as well.....
i gave this an eight. generally, there is a lot to like and appreciate with this picture. the ornateness of the frame is super, the use of an easel fits, and the plain background (both behind and in the mirror) work well. I especially like how you're utilising the mirror as a key subject of the picture and composition. i do like where the camera is in terms of positioning in the mirror, but i am not too keen on how the camera is tilted on to it's side; just doesn't feel right in terms of being a natural, erm, pose. also the colours (a sort of yellowy pink) the tint the whole image kind of detracts from it's naturalness. still, i think it deserves a solid eight.
This picture is in the top of this challenege, at least in my mind. My only wish is that I could see the whole easel on the side and I would nix the black fabric.
Personally I'd do away with the over-powering border. You image is very nicely done (composition/lighting). It might lack some "wow" factor to grab higher points from the tough voters.
I'd like to see this life size! The pixel limitations are working against you here, making the camera too small. It should be closer to the mirror. You are also wasting pixels with that large border. One frame is really enough.
