I was invited to shoot the Flaunt Fashion Runway Show in Washington DC. Since we arrived early we (the main photographer and myself) offered to take some portfolio shots for the models.

A little diplomacy goes a long way. Mr. Gariety should learn some.
Looks good, Marc, your edits to it really did well. A mid 5 for a freestudy is a darn good showing in my book. The hair IS wild, but that's high fashion and is what makes this shot Stand out.
The contrast of the glamor model and abandoned background is good, and the kind of thing you see a lot in fashion magazines just now.
I'm giving this an 8, and that's only because there's something that isn't quite sitting right with me, I'm not sure entirely what it is, but I just don't feel strongly enough about the shot to give it higher.
Now, that's big hair! The feel of this composition is as if you were not the main photographer, but a person that was standing at the side taking a snapshot...there's no real connection with your lens, but rather another person's lens...I might be wrong, so let me know. I certainly like the background for this
