I like the pose and the focus. However I think the color and tone could be improved here. I went ahead and played with this a bit using the basic editing and here is what I came up with (see below). This may not be the direction you were going but perhaps it'll help in some way. Anyway, I hope you don't mind me doing this. I do like your photo in general.



If by any chance you do like it I can send you the photoshop file if you wish. Just PM me.

I love the soft focus...

Really nice photo, but I question how romantic it is. How old is this "girl"? I can't tell if she's 12 or 24, a shirtless 12 year old is not usually too romantic. Otherwise it is a reall nice photo.

looks green on my screen but the soft focus and pose - very romantic 8

This is a well done portrait that has a nice intimate feel to it, but I can't quite see romance. I would have preferred to see a little more headroom for the girl, at least in front of her forehead.

nice. soft focus really works here.

The softness of this photo is very romantic. Her gaze looks full of daydreams - she is in another world. The light on her hair is a bright and real contrast with her mood - it is sharp and real and glowing. I like the balance. Good use of DOF to isolate the subject from the background. I like the color as well.

Nice model, and over-the-shoulder angle to tie into challenge. Focus on eye and more DOF would be better, as the ear dominates not just in location, but in focus. Consider a plain background to eliminate distractions.

Beautiful image, like a romantic painting by one of the masters. A 10 from me and a favorite.
