Greetings from the Critique Club

Oh, what a lovely image! Yet you scored so very low.

This is the most clear-cut example of a subtle photograph our hasty voters found DNMC that I've seen yet. Of course it met the Challenge, but our hasty voters didn't take the time to find the blue eyes of the model.

You did a beautiful job of photographing this model and you can certainly feel good about that. You just didn't hit our voters between the eyes. (ooops, sorry about the pun)

I can only say "better luck next time" and keep up the very good work.

Blue eyes are very very small, may be the bride holding a bunch of floweres (colored) would have helped. IMHO

The blue could use more depth.
