I got alot of comments saying nothing was odd about these girls.

Since when do you see teens looking innocent and sweet these days in person or in photos? Wouldn't you normally see them in black, or in trendy clothing?

You don't. That's why it's odd.

GREAT PHOTO!! THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL SHOT!!

bbut they dont look innocent and sweet;
they look like those weird girls who read things about magic HYBRIDED with a debutante (white dress, rose)
which in itself is weird, sure but not odd because teens in general are`weird.

I like the poses, natural expressions and composition. The lighting is also fitting, but maybe just a touch to over processed for me. Not much mind you, just an iddy biddy bit :)

Nice looking youngsters, nothing odd!
Good picture though.

I like this picture. It has a renaissance feel to it. I like the monotone expressions on the models. I am not sure I see the "Odd Couple" here but I like it none the less. Good job

Nice photo ... aside from the different styles of clothing, they don't look atypical or odd to me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/27/2006 12:50:25 PM
How is this an odd couple?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/27/2006 10:18:06 AM
Not an odd couple as such, but a couple looking or acting odd - so that's on topic :-) What a perfectly charming photo. I like the contrast of the pretty feminine outfits and props vs the very teenage expressions on their faces (great eye contact, too!).

This is an excellent photo. Wonderful exposure, focus and processing!!!! I'm just not seeing anything odd for this couple of teens, maybe I'm missing something. Sorry. Gorgeous shot otherwise.

Such a pleasant contrast from most of the entries. Beautifully done. The roses really make it for me. The girls' eyes are killer.
