I think this was a good capture, and you achieved your goal of bring out the adult aspect of the girl.
I don't care for the processing. The hair looks glued together rather than soft and wispy as I imagine it really was. The contrast on the lips is very harsh (little detail of the mouth is visible) and the edges seem over sharpened. I also don't see any detail in the iris of her eyes. Maybe this is due to excessive noise reduction.
I'd like to see the original. I'll bet there are all sorts of good things you could do with it. |

| I think you used way too much neat image or a blur effect. It's over board IMO |

| This had a lot of potential, but was hurt by the post-processing, particularly the noise reduction/neat image or similar. |

| good portrait, but something looks off in the "focus." maybe adjusted the brightness or something too much in post processing? |

| Pretty girl. The lighting looks nice, but the processing looks overdone. Her eyes should sharp, but they look blurry. |

| I think there's way too much shadow on her face. |

fantastic lighting, great intense connection with her, but it appears you've oversharpened it - at least on my monitor. perhaps this in intentional and if so I like the almost retro look, but still doesn't get past the points above for me. I'd really like to give this an 8, but only a 6 due to the processing

| The idea here is good but the processing and the light of the background really creates a mess in her hair. |

| pretty girl - the lighting is a little problematic (bright area from behind). Due to this, her skin looks a little blotchy and her hair hanging down is all burned out. I better focus on her eyes would also help. I think you have a great model, I would recommend trying some other lighting approaches (see the tutorials on the site). |

| I find the excessively bright highlight to be a distraction |

| The focus on the eyes seems a bit soft, and the bluish hue seems a bit unnatural, just imo. |

| The shadow on the face kind of takes away for me, but very pretty. |

| Very nice catch light in the eye. I would crop a little different coming down a little from the top and making the bottom larger so that the necklace is not cut off. |

| A lot of potential here, the post processing has let you down this time - but keep going, you'll get there :) |
