Now this is a unique prop. Haven't seen cotton bolls used before. Interesting. Nice glow and softness (yet sharp) to her face. Good luck in the challenge.
Excellent work. The image is so clear and the tones are very pleasing. I also love the cotton bowls, they remind me of my childhood in the Mississippi delta.
The cotton bolls are unusual but they work here. Could use just a touch more fill light towards the back of her head on the left or even a hair light on that side. Something to break her loose from the BG.
Very interesting. If you had rasied the exposure of the face and masked the cotton i think it wouldve made it a little better. I think this should do well.
Nicely composed and captured. I like how the cotton blossoms (?) mimic the subject's eyes. The b&w treatment could be stronger, it's a bit too green tinted for my liking and lacks the dynamic range I think this image could offer, but well done nonetheless.
Your skin tone seems a little dark to me. However I really love the portrait. and the cotton (that is cotton right?) is stunning! I love the texture and the light. 8
Nice shot. The eyes are what make it special. The button on the shirt is a little distracting. Actually it would be nice to have naked shoulders and perhaps similar shaped (to the cotton(?)) dangley earrings.
Perfect. Composition, B&W range, tone, texture, nice sharp (but not over-sharpened) image. Means nothing, but I gave you a '10' and hope to see this in the top three at the end. I like photos where I can learn (steal) some ideas, this is one of those. Congrats!
