Lovely! Georgia O'Keefe would laugh heartily.

I seriously mean this: it's an excellent shot of, really, nothing interesting. At least, it wasn't until you photographed it. But there are many, many details worth pondering.

Superb detail; great composition.

September 6, 2009

Beautiful effect and excellent composition -- I love simplicity! Wish I know how you did it!

Great sky, DOF, everything. Well done!

September 6, 2009

Super details make this really work.

A good picture is a good picture; something about having done it yourself is important. A few weeks ago I shot a picture of the 'Sea Lion' on Lake Superior. Right...me and 100,000 others! But so what? Perhaps they simply invite viewers to find a detail that makes the shot singular. Here, you have a great glint in the little bugger's eye and on my monitor anyway a VERY slight yellowish cast in the railing that picks up some of the highlights in his/her fur. So, yeah, a classic, but original at the same time. Anyway, a damn pleasing picture!

Very well done...a very '60s' feel to it...some beautiful young creature who might either be an undergraduate away from home or else a girl dating one of the 'Stones, 1967...

Very nice, overall. It crowds the frame a little, but the rest of the perspective does some interesting stuff.

Wonderful composition. I'd love to see what a good print would be like.

July 23, 2009

Very good work, especially on skin tones & the eyes.

July 23, 2009

Very nicely done. Excellent tones, as already mentioned.

July 23, 2009

It is very good; I like the subtle tones & love the eyes...but I'd like to see the rest of the forehead and perhaps the hair. However, that's a matter of taste. On many objective grounds, this is a great piece of work.

Nice composition and use of colour.

July 23, 2009

Yes, a very cool concept, and nice exposure values (no pun!). Right-side-up would be good as well, I bet.

July 23, 2009

Nicely done, though I admit I might like the hair combed a bit more smoothly. I think that's go better with the look of the vase.

July 23, 2009

Interesting, and potentially provocative concept.

July 23, 2009

Len -- nicely composed. The leaves give a sense of direction for the most part and the berries follow.

July 23, 2009

Very natural, nice colour combinations -- simple and effective.

July 23, 2009

I quite like this one. Almost a sense of motion to it...certainly, one of expectancy.

July 23, 2009

Just enough of the background there to create a bit of mystery...great use of light and a wonderful expression.

July 22, 2009

EXCELLENT!

July 22, 2009

Like Shelly's Ozymandias.

The commenter who submitted the edited version has really applied the 'rule of thirds' to the composition. You have come up with a great concept, found models, used them in an interesting way. Nice work!

I really, really, really love stuff like this! I've taken a couple of shots at learning a way to get similar results...still working!
