A-MAZING! Those ethereal blues against that flawless silhouette. This photo is AWESOME! If it were me doling out scores, this one would have gotten the score your commenters gave you! 7.6 is much more worthy than 6.56 :)

While there may be some technical flaws (apparent artifacting on high contrast borders on forehead and under the chin), this image is both seductive and powerful, making great use of both contrast and motion.

I like the image, just don't like the blue that well.

Nice contrast, but it looks too posed for me. If the photo is saying anything, I'm not getting the message.
