Thanks for all the comments and votes. The flare and dust spots in this shot were intentional and so that's why they weren't cloned out. I wanted a dramatic gym type feel to it and I think (personally) they add to the shot, but I appreciate the comments.

Very well taken portrait. Pity about the single halo on the left top corner.

I'm not crazy about her expression, and the flare on the lest is a bit distracting. But very well done. 7.

Could have removed the dist spots (if that's what they are) - 6 anyway

Nice shot, with good lighting, and a good expression on the model.

A strong portrait like the tone of the shot

lol, its funny that its slogan of nike but she has adidas outfit (I know trainers are nike but still ;)
Post actions
Nice portrait. Expression and title are fitting very well.
Post actions
This would do Nike proud. Well done, great model. Only isssue is the light reflection in the shape of a C in the upper left corner is distracting to me. But that is a minor flaw.
Post actions
I like the Adidas pants/top and the Nike shoes... conflict of interest?

I think this would have been better if the dust was cloned out...kinda is a distraction to an otherwise great shot 6

I find the light too bright but that's a personal taste. A nice portrait.

Blown highlights on the arm so total lack of detail in those areas..

toning and softness create a nice contrast with the subject

need to be a stock photo....really good tone

Nice composition and tones. Might have cleaned up some of the specks in the upper left.

I like the light, great pose from her as well
Post actions
nice potrait, she doesn't look like she would just do it. 7

Except for the very clear "c" in the upper left this is perfect.
Post actions
I like the attitude in her eyes
Post actions
but she's also wearing adidas

Great lighting and a good pose. Like the color treatment. Nice portrait.

The dust floating behind her is a bit of a bummer, but otherwise this is awesome. The lighting is phenomenal.
Post actions
I really like to composition. Too bad, that the left corner is a bit to blurry.
Post actions
Very nice shot, her expression doesn't quite fit the title, good tones
Post actions
Nice portrait spoiled a little by the flare IMO.
Post actions
Did you do it? She looks kind of disappointed... Very nice portrait. Very clean lines. Like the back glow.
Post actions
Really like your lighting here, and I love the overall look of the image. Very fitting. Nice job!
Post actions
Nice portrait. I do think that I would take the main light down just a hair to bring those arms back from overexposure.

Nice portrait. I like the tones you have in it too.
Post actions
Really nice light and pose.

I think I have the same Nike running shoes! Very emotive capture, it definitely tells a story. Very nice play of lights and darks. Well done! 9
Post actions
The idea is a good one. It's a good shot. One small detail - she's wearing an Adidas top, and the logo is as prominent than the Nike one you're focusing on.
Post actions
Very nice shot, the lighting is awesome. I like the tone of the image.
Post actions
She looks like one tough cookie! Great lighting and processing.
Post actions
nice portrait, nice light, i like her expression.
Post actions
the back light is a bit distracting
Post actions
Really, really stylish image. The bright light on the upper left, and even the dust(?) spots in the background really add dimension to this photo. Lighting overall is beautiful. Excellent.
Post actions
I find the lighting a bit distracting - bright. it would have been nice to see a bit more definition in her skin - especially the arms as she appears to be participating in a sport of strength and none is shown in her definition.
Post actions
seems a little blown out interesting image tho i like the pose
Post actions
Now thats a portrait, very very good. Nice lighting, moody and a gorgeous subject always helps... :) Give her my regards
Post actions
a bit over exposed. was this scanned? arms face forehead blown
Post actions
I like pose and composition, the lighting is good, and I like the reduced saturation. The lens flare is very distracting.
Post actions
I like the theme here - nicely lit too
