Challenge: Masks (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Lens: Canon EF 70-200mm f/4.0L USM
Location: Oshawa
Date: Jun 1, 2008
Aperture: f6.3
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/160
Date Uploaded: Jun 1, 2008

 I'd like to thank everyone for the great comments.
I did have problems with the eyes as this mask is really a wall decoration but I loved it and wanted to use it. It was a bit to small and had a stick at the bottem which prevented it from fitting directly on the face. I did the best I could and am very pleased with the results!
Thanks again.

Love the eyes and just the overall composition of this photo =)

These colors are FABULOUS! I keep coming back to see this. The background highlights her beautiful green eyes. The curly hair adds to the image... If the eyes were a tad bit sharper this would be a perfect ten instead of the nine I gave it (IMHO). Kudos to you for a wonderful image.

what a beautiful mask. i would have evened up the persons eyes with those on the mask though, it feels a bit off centered
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Great mask, colors and shot. Looks like a winner to me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/07/2008 01:13:05 PM
It's great how the girl skin, eyes and hair colors all find a match in the mask.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/07/2008 09:46:31 AM
would have preferred eyes to be in focus even if the theme is mask!Like the composition
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is just a simply stunning shot, and I'd be really surprised if it didn't win. Excellent use of interesting subject matter, meets the challenge spot-on, excellent use of toning/color - lots and lots of visual interest. I hope you have this framed and in your house somewhere and in a spot of honor. Really really nice work here; I just don't have enough praise.

Wow, this just jumps out at ya. Good luck, as I'm sure you got a top 10 here at least.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/01/2008 08:46:02 PM
It's a nice shot but the eyes just don't seem right to me. I would prefer them more in focus because my eye jumps right to her hair. You should end up in the top 10 or so still though. Good Luck!
