Although a nice image, it would not be considered bokeh...too much of it is in focus. Lighting on the face is very nice but the shoulders and the pool are a bit overblown. Taking this at a different time of day would have helped.

Little or no bokeh, otherwise better than most one handed self-portraits! ;)
06/26/2006 08:49:14 PM
Great model but theme not met, highlights blown. Keep trying.
06/25/2006 12:30:12 PM
The strong light has not been your friend here with blown out areas. Sharp focus on the face.
06/24/2006 10:03:20 PM
Were's the bokeh?
06/24/2006 05:16:59 PM
Cute! Beautiful eyes.
06/24/2006 05:45:49 AM
Very nice image but it really doesn't meet what the challenge was about. Great eyes though, lovely shot.
06/24/2006 05:14:27 AM
Good try..
06/24/2006 01:23:49 AM
A little too bright....but love the expression.
06/23/2006 05:02:20 PM
Pretty overexposed, and no real "bokeh" effect. Maybe try a lower F-stop (2.8) and a really quick shutter.

This entry has very over-processed look with many blown areas. The oof areas look pretty ugly and does not enhance the picture in any way. A very average entry. You do look like a very lovley girl though :)

I see you have a P&S camera with great DOF. It's hard to make bokeh with that but I believe it's possible.

Very blown out - reminds me of a myspace self portrait.

There are a few issues with this image which need to be addressed:
1. The first is that there is no Bokeh in this image;
2. While you have managed good exposure on the face, a good portion of the remaining image is overblown;
3. The time of day you opted for is not conducive to good lighting; and lastly;
4. A spelling mistake in the title could have a negative effect on your score.

While I realize that I have not said any positive concerning image, I would urge you to continue with your photographic endeavours. One only gets better with time and practice.

Over exposed.
06/22/2006 04:01:12 PM
Many areas overexposed, not really much bokeh.
06/22/2006 05:27:38 AM
Interesting, but the background bokeh doesn't add anything.
06/22/2006 05:11:01 AM

Nice self portrait, but I am not getting the bokeh out of the image.
06/21/2006 01:43:32 PM
Doesn't meet the challenge
06/21/2006 01:42:20 PM
Very cute girl, lovely eyes. I believe in her expression, she looks playfull.

Good luck with your entry! :-)

NICE FOCUS, i WISH THERE WAS MORE BLUR IN BACKGROUND. PRETTY EYES.
06/21/2006 06:43:29 AM
good photo, but a bit too much hot spots. good job
06/21/2006 05:30:15 AM
Ok Like the pic of you but don't see the bokeh effect..cute though...
06/20/2006 08:28:37 PM
highlights blown.........and dnmc......use a larger aperture to meet this challenge.....all that said, you chose a lovely subject
06/20/2006 08:25:43 PM
Beautiful model. She takes away the flaws in the photo :) Anyway, the lighting is little harsh and bokey is not prominent. Hope this does well for you.8.
