If you have the skills, I think it would be worth blending that green weed in the background into the colors of the rest of the foliage. I'd also like to see the colors in the sweater desaturated a bit. I think that would really make her face stand out.
She looks like a fairy that belongs into this meadow. Gorgeous natural portrait. The only tiny picky thing I would have removed are the grasses directly in front of her.
lovely. the background is out of the dof enough to not become part of her, yet gives texture and color. she is a doll, and I love the "free" mood of the whole image.
very cute. her colorful sweater pops out nicely against the muted background and her blowing hair and nice smile adds a sense of playfulness to the shot
One of my top two for this challenge. Love the pose, love the background & soft light. I like how the green in the sweater is echoed in just the spot of foliage in the background. I found myself wishing for just a touch more contrast, & possibly a bit of desaturation of the red in her cheeks (but not much!). Very nice work, good luck.
This just screams "Spring is here." I just love it. A wonderful subject, great composition, wonderful natural lighting, great rosey cheeks -- I think you're going to take home a ribbon on this one. Good luck!
cute kid, nice seamless background, solid portrait. Might have tried to notice the green patch and maybe hide it behind her head or move slightly to exclude it. Otherwise a solid, non-intrusive background that works well.
Lovely apple cheeks and smile, deligtfully captured. The hair blowing in the wind adds a nice touch of movement. Maybe a crop to reduce the space on the left while retaing the assymetry would work too?
