Very clear photo & perfect tones. I'm sure you're getting a lot of comments on the wrinkled backdrop, but you live, you learn, eh? But your model is adorable and more than makes up for the background. Great job!

Great shot, but I wish I couldn't see a white linen backdrop. A dark background might have worked better, or even the view outside a window, especially if it looked classroomish.

beautiful composition, a little to bright on the upper left.

The subject is great, b&w treatment works... but that sheet in back kills the shot.

:) I like this shot and the subject's position. I can also closely relate to this feeling from a few of my past classes.

Your focus worked real good but could improve more on compozition. I would took it more from left side to show more of her crossed arms which lool real nice. I found bacground pretty strange aswell... Keep shoting.

This is a nice photo, I just don't care for the wrinkle in the background, 7

Good except for the backdrop cloth on the right side. Maybe a strong backlight on that side would obscure the cloth and highlight the subject. 6

Very odd looking backround. My guess is you got a white sheet and used that and I don´t think it´s working very well. Either it should be moved further back to make it more blurry or just skip it alltogher and try to set this in an actual classroom. Anyway, good shot nonetheless, I like it.

I like everything about this photo except for one little thing: the folds showing in the sheet behind her. Otherwise, it's one of my favorite in the challenge. Good luck ;-)

like the b&w, suggest adjusting dof to blur backdrop, blown out left portion pulls my eye away from your well composed student and books.
