This was one of my top picks to win, I think it was an amazing photo and should have scored higher!

It's my fault, I didn't vote in this challenge.
I would've gave it a 9. Only thing missing is maybe a smile.

Incredibly underrated...you were robbed blind! 34 out of 296??? This was a really inconsistent result for most shots, but this one astounds me. I gave it one of only 3 10's in this challenge.

Makes you want to scream doesn't it?

The best 'person' shot in the challenge in my opinion. Great sharpness and color!

Beautiful! The face position, the eyes looking slightly sideways compared to the face, and the direct gaze really grab me.

Mmmm, I've seen her before, hopper? Lovely shot, lovely model, not a big fan of that material you decided to use though.

Very nice lighting. At first it seemed her lips should be shiny in some way, but that would just detract from the gold hues - terrific job!!!

I find the earrings distract me a little from her face and the glitter but this is still a nicely composed image with good detail

This looks like a very painful shoot not to mention messy. Interesting take to this challenge. The photo has excellent clarity and is probably unique to this challenge its not a photo I'd expect to see on a wall as it doesn't have any wow factor. Other then that good job. Good luck in this challenge. <7>

Oh man...Those eyes!

I really like this shot. I can't put my finger on it but there's something about the asymmetry of her mouth that is distracting. It's not the model she's very pretty. I think it's the shadow. A little adjustment on the lighting may eliminate this and bring her left eye into better view as well. Very nicely done!

How nice! Taking a nap on the beach has allowed at least half of your face to be ready for Mardi Gras! You appear to be ready for at least a few strings of beads as well. Cheers! ;)

I like the idea...I just don't think it works very well...good quality shot, I just don't think it is as good as you probably planned it.
