Hello from the Critique Club:

I didn’t vote on this challenge, so this is my first time looking at your image. First I must commend you for taking on the tougher of the two open challenges and you did it with a self image. I’ve really never dabbled in soft focus before but I believe you choose one of the most suited subjects for this style, a portrait of a person. Over all your technique is as good as I would have expected for this challenge. As a few of the comments you received during the challenge mentioned, the positioning of your arms probably had a small negative effect on your score. I applaud you for trying for a certain effect and although you didn’t quite achieve the look you were going for, you still managed a very strong entry. Nice job.

Tim

But you are her Mum, and rightly "PROUD" of her beautiful daughter.....

This is such a moving and beautiful self portrait Kita, and you are a very talanted your DPC member. I am just so proud of the wonderful images you produce, at such a tender young age. I am adding this as a favorite.

Lovely use of soft focus. Very sweet. My eyes want to look at her lovely face but the arms in the forground are competing a little bit for my attention. Beautiful soft lighting. Bumping you to 8. Nice job.

she looks like she is pouting. I dont care for the hand position or the fabric overlapping her chin. Good on the soft focus and the model is lovely.

I think I wld have cropped out the arms as they tend to jump olut of the ppic and take it over. Otherwise a nice study
