I believe the focus is set on to the glass/droplets. And the reflection in fact is to be found somewhere behind the mirror - I do not understand the benefit of softness here.
The lady is not satisfied with herself and this wiping motion adds a lot to the story - very truthful moment!
very strong... I recently saw a similar set of photos in a theme somewhere else and this one is no less impressive than any of those. getting outside the box is always good :) = 10
Very creative. Extra points for that. Love the subdued colours. My only suggestion would have been to make the part where her eyes reflect in the mirror clear, so the eyes would come through sharp. That way the viewer could focus on that point. Ofcourse if you intended overall soft feel, then job well done.
A great capture of the subject's personality - something every portrait should strive to do. I like the tones and the lighting. I lvoe the overall concept and the composition.
While I think this is a neat approach, I can only say it is not my cup of tea. If the eyes were more in focus and the center of attraction, I think I would be more into this shot. As is there is nothing compelling my attention. BOL
Very mysterious and engaging - a neat idea. The hand wipe to provide balance and an explanation is very clever. The limited colour tones works well too.
