hi all, just hoping for some feedback on this image. mucked around in photoshop for an arty/angelic look.... what do you think?? Is her face blown too much? I printed it up and really like it but it looks a bit ordinary now resized?? Constructive criticism and comments always appreciated. x

thanks for looking

Very pretty shot. I love the soft pink but I would like a bit more detail in the highlights.

I think I might play with crop a bit. The space from her back doesn't do anything for me, and her eyes are very centered, which tends hold my eye stagnant. Do you have more image to camera right? Have you tried a vertical crop?

Also, the magenta skin tones are ok....but what does it look like with more natural tones?

I really think this picture is perfect.

I really like it.

All the elements are here. Slightly confused though. Took me a second to figure out the Ballerina part. The lighting and mood is certainly angelic, but her expression is grumpy? I would like to see more from the shoot.

Cute girl. Fine shoot.

thanks for your comments guys... craig... already posted a heap from this shot but i think they have slipped back a bit. and honestly she wasnt unhappy but has a bit of a lazy eye and i suppose a generally serious expression... there were smiles but i liked this one for some unknown reason??!!

thanks again everyone... maybe it does work x
