Very reminiscent of the famous National Geographic cover shot. I like the detail and focus on this. IMHO more exposure on the eyes may have added to the shot, as the burst of color seems to stem more from the head-dressing rather than the eyes. Yet, the eyes are the main focal point of the shot. Just my humble opinion, nice shot nonetheless... 8

Nice idea. IMO a little soft the focus, maybe because of the resizing for web. The look of the model is great. 7

Amazing. I would say the only thing that could have been better would have been brighter eyes but it is still great. 10

Nice title. I had come into this challenge expecting to feel negative about shots that used a color surround to emphasize a colorless subject, but this shot has sown me it is a perfectly valid approach if used well. Which it certainly is here...

The focus seems to rest on the nose and not the eyes, and you really needed a bit more light on the eyes. I would also suggest cropping in the sides to put the focus on the eyes and the color.

With the vivid green of the head covering, the eyes kind of sink back. They seem slightly out of focus to me. I'd rather see the eyes un-really green and in sharp focus. Just my taste.

Composition is ok. The choice of subject matter is ok. The image quality is ok. Has potential of being really creative. - 6
