EXCELLENT!! (Running out of steam for commenting - so being brief) Composition; clarity; detail, time and effort; execution - all great. How'd you get the person to stay still (no bluriness) and how long did it take? Great work 9 Ruthann
From my perspective: Meets challenge:Yes, with ease. Technical:good exposure, fine focus, actually the focus is very fine, considering the face and reflection are both clearly focused...good job! Appeal/Artistic:Very good Composition:The only thing I'd eliminate here is the flesh and chair reflections that really don't add to, or support the subject. Originality:Very good. Comments:Overall you did a fine job here. One of my favorites.Good luck in the challenge.
Original. I like the reflection, though would prefer if it didn't include the garden chair and the bit of body at the right of the lens. Also the hand or arm at the right spoils the line of the face. 5, Kavey
The idea is great but the execution leaves to be desired. Since this is a shot where all the details are paramount you should have controlled that environment more: get rid of the clutter, such as those chairs. The way you cropped at the right, i.e. left eye, does not look pretty. Nor does the body in the glass, is that yours or someone else's. I realize this is a very tough shot but you should have worked more on it to overcome some of those flaws. Perhaps cropping out at the bridge to eliminate the awkward other eye and whatever else can be see there would have helped a lot. Do keep trying things like this though. 5 Journey
