excellent portrait - hard to complain when the score it over 6.0, but this deserved much better.

PostLuminous Award WINNER!

This is quirky, fun, luminous, and DAZZLING!. I cannot look at this without smiling, and I cannot stop looking at it!

I'm speachless. This was easily the most under-rated image in the challenge. Obviously, I'm not on the same page as everyone else... but this shot is an inspiration to me. Well done.

ETA: Hey - I'm not alone! Congrats on the PostLuminous award (from this thread)!

I love the makeup and the expression. But the lighting makes her teeth looks yellow. With nice teeth like that I think I'd want to see them whiter so they would stand out a little more.

I am personally weary of "trash the model" photos, but given the genra, this works pretty well.

Really cute! nice light in the eyes.

Coul have used some teeth whitening dodge and the straight on ringflash is making horrible speculars in her eyes :(

Interesting make up and expression. I think the shallow DOF is great but would prefer the nose to have a bit more focus as it's slightly destracting. Very nice

Love the ringlight in her eyes. Looks like a 2.8 shot or maybe lower. I would personally like it better at a tad higher DOF to keep her eyebrows and nose from going soft. Anyway, I like the shot Sander. - 7

What a very fun and enjoyable portrait! Full of energy.

Cool! Great expression. I think it would be even better if you had more DOF also covering the nose. It makes it into my top 10 anyways.

Wow, wow, wow! I just can't stop looking at this image. Love everything about this - the comp, the pose, the model, the lighting, the catch lights, and the 1.2 just looks amazing here. My top rated in this challenge (and there's some incredible images in here). Absolutely stunning (the image AND the model). 10 from me... and I rarely give those out. Bravo!

I really like the idea of this but (personally) I think the Dof may be just a bit to shallow . .

Otherwise great idea and effect.
