I feel that your concept would have been more effective if she actually was paying attention to what chemicals she is mixing. It is her facial expression and body language that makes her not look like a scientist I think, not really her dress. Also the lighting is a bit harsh it seems to me. |

As a scientist, lacks authenticity w/o goggles, but still a nice photo. Do you see the distortion which makes her legs/knees/arm/foreground hand look much too large relative to her head? I can't decide if my mind is playing tricks with me. Could happen though when using the 18-55 in a tight space... Maybe it was intentional?

I quite love how the colors in the beakers match her outfit! |

I don't like how she's not paying attention to what she's doing, because yeah she may look good in the photograph for the modle part, but scientist would be wearing goggles and paying attention |

Great image! I love the colors and the pose. The dress she's wearing makes her slightly less convincing as a scientist. |

I get the humor here. I totally understand that this is satire. That bing said, I think you would be more successful playing it staright here. Either get a model doing what models do or find an actual scientist. As far as shot goes, creative and colorful. The white lab coat is blown out and it is affecting the skin tone of your model, causing the face to appear pale and the eyes sort of disappear into the hair. |

Lighting is harsh, but a good concept nonetheless. |

It is a nicely done portrait, but IMO, an environmental portrait should tell us something about the personality of the subject. In this, all we know is that she is a model, but that the environment is a facade, so we don't really know her. |

As a scientist this picture offers me hope, thank you.
Really nice shot, I like the fact the white lab coat and in her skin are a little to bright making the picture extra sharp. |

I feel I ought to like this shot more than I do, the framing and the balance of subject and environment are perfect, but from her clothing to her searching the distance expression, she looks about as detached from the environment of a chemestry lab as it is possible. This would be a fine entry for a fashion challenge, but in this one the integration of portrait and environment are the key element. |

Hey, she should focus a bit more on what she is doing, or she might burn her hand. |
