Composition - I don't care for the composition here... there wasn't much you could do about it after the fact because the woman's head behind her would have been cut off. Consequently the main subjects head is in a rather akward place and her hands aren't really where they draw attention either. Also the bright orange behind her draws your eye from the subject. maybe getting at a different angle may have helped the photo.
Exposure - The exposure seems ok here... nothing that I can really see wrong.
Color - The main subject is rather dull and the women behind her have color, this detracts from the photo. I may have tried this photo in black and white.
Focus - Even the parts that should be in focus are blurry, this was probably not due to the fact that you weren't in focus, so much as the fact that you were shooting at a very low speed, hand held and had some camera shake.
Background - the background is quite distracting in this photo... maybe trying for a different dof might have been good for this photo (blurring the background some)
Fit for challenge - personally I think this photo fit the challenge very well. I love the way that she looks excited hence the name, and her hands are obviously clapping. Wonderful job on fitting the challenge!
Lighting - good use of available light, which isn't always easy to do.
Wowability - no real oomph here. Maybe it was personal wow, but for the rest of us, not knowing the person or what she was clapping for made the picture rather boring for us.
Final comments - obviously you were going for a candid here, and the fact that the woman is looking directly at the camera doesn't help. Great following of the challenge though. |

Pretty good portrait. The background seems a little distracting, and the subject isn't particularly interesting to me. 5 |
