Good photo?
the photo idea is great but it is too washed out. either too much natural lighting or too much flash.
Good photo?
convinced! really a good one.
Reply:I like the composition, but I don%26#039;t think the photo is great. No contrast, very washed out ... and what the heck is reflected in her iris? Thats odd.





Now - if thats what you were going for... for like a background... thats cool. But I just don%26#039;t think it stands alone.
Reply:ill put my opinion in three ways





The abstract artist that shoots 120mm film: Awesome!


The normal person: Its missing something.


The good people at iStock: What the hell is this!





Im the first one so there.





Darken it a little though.
Reply:lol I know the %26#039;Am I pretty%26#039; thing is lame.











I thought it was an interesting idea for the photo, but that it was too washed out. To me it looks like it%26#039;s already been %26#039;edited%26#039; because the wash out is so uneven.





I would edit it, and burn in the eyes more. Darken it up, and then repost it here. :)





Or do a re-take of the same photo in a different element.
Reply:The reflection on your eye is so nice.. Too bad the entire photo looks washed out.





The face is nice.
