Very pretty little girl. Nice expression. Certainly pink. Good composition. A little too much Neat Image or whatever you used to soften the picture though IMHO. Still one of my top picks.

Beautiful soft image. Cables/ropesbehind her are distracting

Something has gone very wrong in Photoshop.

her skin looks too much like PS , nice composition overall with the diagonals of ropes

A lovely well poised capture. The post processing has stolen some of its natural beauty, yet it still holds its own. 7

very nice image, I like the subtle expression on the model's face, but it looks a little too smooth, like a slight over use of neat image

I think you have great potential in this photo, but I have to say it seems very over-sharpend. This causes me to lose my focus and notice this kind of unreal photo.

You over did the softening. The jarline is too fuzzy.

Great capture. I like the composition, the expression on your subject's face, and the wind in her hair. Is this a studio shot? 8

A great shot with nice composition, and lighting. It looks a little too photoshopped for my tastes.

Looks a little weird too me like it was oversharpened or too much NeatImage... not sure exactly. It's really cute though -- pretty girl, pretty expression, and I like the windblown hair.

Would have mad a wonderful picture if you hadn't way oversharpened this.

this image has possiblities.. a better crop, a romantic effect or action in PS, like an etheral glow and it would be lovely.. pretty girl.

expression is good, also the way hair goes across the face ia great
hair and skin have a very plastic like look.. may be you tried to reduce noise more than you needed..

This is a beautiful photograph -- the lighting, colors and composition appear very good. However, it is obvious that NeatImage or something similar was way overused on some parts while leaving too much noise in others -- mainly shadowed areas. I'm wondering if your ISO might have been too high or if it was just the settings on the NeatImage. After the challenge is over you might want to post this one and your original in a forum thread and get some feedback. I suspect your score will be rather low, but don't know how many will stop to tell you that it's because of the post-processing, not the subject. I do hope this is helpful information :)

I love the shot but it looks like a smart blur filter was used, which almost makes it look like a painting instead of a photo. I would have liked it better without the filter I think.

I like this shot. Her face looks a bit over worked but it did not stop me from giving you a high score. Nice photo.

Nice portrait in action...good compozition.

Very pretty portrait. I like the way the ropes are the only thing visible in the background. The upper strands of hair that cross the face are a bit distracting. Lovely.

photoshop bleh.
great picture otherwise, but too much processing for my taste. there are a lot of really strong lines that make this a very active picture, and this is one of the more pleasing shades of pink imo.
