Nice perspective and top notch color! I kind of like the footprint and water meter. It's an interesting contrast between the elegant women and rough environment. |

Greetings from the Critique Club.
Hi Jon,
First impressions are ...I really like this shot. The colours and lighting on your beautiful model are lovely, her pose has a wonderfully fluid and sensual feel to it. Point of view, perspective appeals to me...fits the music.
I do agree with some of your comments about the busy b/g, meter next to her knees being distracting.....I wonder if a shallower dof, background oof would have thrown the focus directly onto her eyes.
I think I might have tried a further slight levels adjustment moving the white slider to 0/1.0/222, it seems to bring out more detail in her eyes and face. Good work on the composition of this shot.....it really is different, vibrant!
I grew up with the Beetles too....this shot really does fit the challenge very well, fits the mood of the time.
I'll look forward to seeing more of your work in forthcoming challenges

very seducing pose but i cant scoe it as high as it could get had it a different title.
her eyes arent what's tantalizing here, perhaps if you were to recenter the photo? crop differently?
the focus doesnt go on her eyes so sorry about that it cant be the 8 i was gonna give it. |

the photo is spoiled by the "meter" next to her knees, otherwise it would be a really good picture. |

A couple of things I notice here... one - the electrical box or whatever it is that is coming out of her knee is quite disturbing 2 - while I love the chipped pain next to her - the plain white, modern door detracts from the scene, and 3 - I think this would have served better as a much closer portrait - it looks like your model has wondeerful eyes... but why not focus on them? Especially because of your title?! Get in close... you've got a great model, don't let a busy scene detract from her. |

I think she's gorgeous and has the eyes to match the title...the background is shocking though...a gas meter, the footprints on the step...they all distract rather than add to this shot...I think if you wanted a grungy background you should have gone all the way and found a REALLY grungy background. This looks like the back steps of the house and takes away from what would have been an awesoem shot...in any case 7 |

Captured with great attention to angle and bosy positioning to exploit the play of light and shadow. Bump. |

Unique angle and very well balanced composition. The subject and her dress really pop against that background. Excellent photo! |

Like the colors and yes her eyes are tantalizing but the POV is a little too extreme IMO. |

The only thing that bugs me about the photo is the gas meter on the left side. Might have tried cropping or hiding that somehow. |

Really vague... this picture could fit in pretty much any challenge as long as you change the title to fit it. I assume you took this picture without considering using it in this schtick. |

She's got the devil in her heart
But her eyes they tantalize
She's gonna tear your heart apart
oh her lips are really thrilling
Maybe a closeup would have given better impact,you brought the lyrics to life though....7 |
