Challenge: The Five Senses (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-400D Rebel XTi
Lens: Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
Location: Yosemite CA

 I hate that I didn't set up my tripod up all the way. The low angle is not very attractive.
I also hate that this challenge is Basic Editing.

Otherwise, I like the idea and the way this photo turned out.
I have been eyeing this beautiful wild flower meadow for a while now, and finally found a challenge for which I could use it. Didn't have any models so had to use myself.

Score Prediction: 5.5-5.9, probably right in the middle

I'd flip this so the subject would be facing the other way so when my eyes come in from the left of the photo I wouldn't come into the back of her head. Good composition with subject not dead center (good rule of thirds). Clothing is very distracting... would have preferred a solid color dress with all the spots of color around the photo from the flowers. Lighting is a bit harsh on the arms and face making subject look "bigger" which the patterned dress also does.

Sweet. If you play around with angles more, you an get really interesting shots with the light pastel girl and flowers framed by the darker tree background.

The lighting is a little flat, it looks like a nice location to try shooting in the evening or maybe in the rain.

Truly one of the few that truly depicts a sense and isn't a shoe horn.
