I love this portrait. The pose and the soft focus effect really work well. The darker eyes really pull my own eyes in.
Nice choice for B&W too. |

Thanks Bob, I liked it to, could of been abit more sharp I guess, but I liked the soft look of it. Glad to of been in 29th place with it though, better than my others, lol.

| Lovely portrait. It could have been a bit sharper on her eyes though. Excellent composition lighting. 8. |

| Brightest highlights slightly blown-out, but that's beautiful lighting overall. I'd like to see a version using a "print-type" duotone using black and a light peachy color |

At first I was disturbed by the focus on the rim of the hat, rather than the eyes.. however on further contemplation I do like the effect. It almost serves to draw attention to her face and hair. Good job! 9

| This would be an absolutely lovely portrait if it weren't for the focus. It is absolutely critical IMO for the eyes in a portrait to be sharp and unfortunately they are not. The auto focus was probably tricked into focusing on the hat. |

| beautiful model..you probably wanted the softness, but I would have preferred if the focus was on her more than the hat(maybe a closer crop). Whites are a little blown out, and you could use a little more dark tones. |

| A superb pose and composition. I think the skin tones are quite a bit flat and somewhat washed out. Her skin looks so perfect, but the exposure didn't capture it as it could have. Nice job. 8 |

| A nice portrait photo that is well suited to B&W. Very pretty model. I like the lighting and the way it catches the hair. |

| This is a really nice portrait of this person. I like that it's not just a big posed "say cheese" picture but a very nice, natural poignant pic. Its just a little soft and I don't like the way "soft" comes across in this photo. It almost looks like the brim of the hat is the focal point. Very nicely done regardless. |

| she is stunning!! I really like the lighting, very well done. the hat seems to have great detail, but the face is a touch soft. confuses the eye a bit, but the soft focus/diffusion works well |

| I like the way you used the technique to enhance the soft focus. Maintained great detail in the hat. Only slight negative is that the compostiion is a too centered horizontally. |

| wonderful picture, normally you would want the eyes in focus, but the hat in focus adds creativity, depth, and something else i like but can't descibe. the soft focus on the skin and hair works well. The soft lighting adds to the overall presentation of the subject. 10 |

| The focus in the picture is on the weave of the hat, not Whitney's face -- did you intend that? If so, that's a really interesting perspective. If not, hmmmm . . . . |

| Need to see more of the eyes. Focus appears to be stronger on the hat than on the face. |
