this is a great shot that is well taken. I like the expression captured but feel that a darker backdrop woulh have made a big improvement. As it is it looks a bit tired and washed out

Nice portrait, just a little too light.

Good expression on the subject's face, but I feel that the lighting is a bit too strong from the left and not quite enough on the right.

You have chosen the perfect match of title and emotion shown by your model. The light colors (hair, shirt, backgroud) work well together (and set off the blue eyes). I like how there are no blown out spots (tough to do with so much light). Suggestions? A bit more light on the left side of her face would work a bit better for me (perhaps accomplished by shifting her hair?)

it is not soft and it is not sharp. It is like you took the brightness and contrast slider and went left 20%.

Great capture. Subtle, neat lighting. Like how the eye in shadow can still be seen. 7

Make this a portrait orientation and you would have another point from me. Still giving above average score. Nicely exposed and well lit portrait.
