 Monroe momentby =SavateyCommentsDevious Comments I agree with this on many levels, however, i feel that the composition of the piece with the heavy head room works well with the shot, it brings the architecture into the piece too.
-- not from concentrate.  Dear =JVarriano, thank you VERY much for taking your time to write such a nice, detailed critique. I'm very grateful
 Well, the composition of this piece is a subject of controversy. Another critique (yeah, I was lucky enough to have 2!) states the common rule pf leaving more space on the side to where the girls looks. So, may be, compositionally that would be great to move her up and right to cut space over and on the left. On the other hand, I feel like the picture would be too tight for her then. Thanks for critiqueing!  -- Have you seen my gallery [link] yet? Thank you
 I do feel that cutting the upper part would make the photo a little bit to tight. -- Have you seen my gallery [link] yet?  The architecture is beautiful, it adds a lot to the image. You're welcome!
I like it either way, I don't think you should change a thing about it!  |

You caught a terrific pose here. It is greatly complimented by her eyes and facial expression. It reminds me of those old paintings of young women waiting for their men to come home from their long journey at sea. The fact that there is a great deal of motion from the wind cements that image in my mind!
The colors are perfect, with hints of colder tones that contrast her warm skin tone. I like the tone her skin has, the subtle reds work well to make sure she isn't lost to the background. Had her skin looked to pale, she may not have stood out from the railings enough.
My only critique is that for me, there is too much at the top of the image. I would have cropped it a little closer.. but that is all about personal composition taste.
Great work! I can't wait to see more portraits from you.
