 The black background is from a big black box behind the subject..the lighting is purely sunlight..just couldn't get perfect round bubble shots..they would lose focus as soon as they were set free..this one i got looked promising and a little sharp too..
There's hardly any editing in here..only brightness contrast and hue saturation..looking at the original, could it have been better if i had edited it more? what editing should i have done? how is the composition of the photo?

GREETINGS FROM THE CRITIQUE CLUB

Ohhh, when I saw this come up on my screen, I could hardly wait to see how it did in the scoring. I loved it and gave it a 7.

It is a beautiful image; you handled it well. Excellent lighting and good cropping on your model's face. It would (perhaps) have been better to have more of the face in the picture, and more or less of the clothing. You "could" even here, have gone with a slightly closer crop to remove the blue...next time. While I cannot get over the excellent lighting, the remainder of the composition has a great deal of merit as well, and keeping your helper relaxed and enjoying the shoot counts for a great deal. It is fantastic experience should you decide on photography as a career.

I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Alice

I had the same sort of idea, couldn't get the focus, lighting or anything right so I didn't enter. Although you got all of these down perfect, good job! How did you get the bubble blue?

Great shot. Composition, lighting and colors are fantastic. My only criticism is that I think the white vertical strip on the far right under the face is bit distracting.
