Brilliant indeed! I gave you a 10 and figured this would place first. Great work. Perfect composition. Excellent light and details. The hair and the shades are perfect. Damn! She looks a lot like Julia Roberts! I hope she takes that as a compliment and not a DIS. (: Selected as Favorite!
Cheers....Martin |

thanks for all the kind words peeps! i went for emotion over technical with this one--i had a few that had better backgrounds/cigarettes--but i liked her pose, etc in this one. so i'm happy with the placement! :)
@pedro--just the usual frustratingness of people not reading the challenge. my interpretation was that it could or could not have to do with the actual movie. some people i guess thought it meant that it could not at all have anything to do with the movie. oh well.
@riot--cool, i'm a huge parker posey fan. |

17 people voted this 3 or less? idiots. The Anal-ysts were clearly out in force...maybe knock it down a few points if you think it misses the challenge, but for *&%$ sake people use your damn brains for a change.
I'm ashamed for those people. |

A great portrait of your model. Too bad the cig was blown out in the white background. One of two 10's I gave. |

01/18/2005 06:14:07 PM |
Great shot, very 60s. I think it could be a bit sharper, and I wish the cigarette didn't blend in the background, but overall, I think it's great. Bumping up. |

The model is just about perfect though I think there was a certain eternal innocence in Audrey's face that is lacking here. But that facet of her never worked for me in her Holly portrayal and the slight hardness does with this model. Only nit is the cigarette seems to disappear. Nice job. |

Yup, I think we have a winner right here. I'm almost too stunned to comment but I had to go ahead and tell you what a lovely shot this is. I'm sure you've gotten plenty of congratulatory comments already though :) A classic, gorgeous work of art...good for you! :) |

Wow. Speechless. This would make Audrey herself blush at it's perfection. Pose, frame, crop, lighting,everything. perfect. If this doesn't get a ribbon Imma lose it.
i wanted to spell it speachless, just because i think i'm funny, and you'd get it ;) |

She seems Audrey but I don's think it meets the challenge, a pic related to the title not to the movie. |

Composition works for me, suits the movie title, gray scale helped. Good job. |

The model's bangs appears to have stolen the focus from the face. Definite retro feel to this one. |
|
Photographer found comment helpful. |

This looks great. Her pose and looks is so classic. She really looks like (and perhaps she really is) a famous moviestar.
The balance of light and dark combined with the toning is just great. The addition of the cigarette holder makes it mory dynamic. If I imagine the portrait without it, it somehow looses its power.
The things that draw me as first is the hair and the glasses. Especially the tone gradation in the glasses makes it a bit "who's that girl?" (to be sure: not Madonna related at all!). |

it's mildly off-topic as it should be illustration to the title, not to the movie, but great job in mimicking Audrey! |

Yay! What a great job on the Audrey lookalike :)
The shot is a little out of focus in some places (her big hair) and a little blownout in upperleft, but forgetting all that - I love it! 10! |
