rip it up!!! lol

The only thing I can "rip" about this image is that it is too small. (Post with 700 pixels on the longest side.)

Otherwise, great separation of the subject from the background using a wider aperture, good job as she really POPS from the BG really making the image so much more focused on the model.

Second, I think the choice of red hair and red outfit contrasts great with the green necklace. Great smile and eye contact. I like it, just wish I could view it larger. (without having to sign in to flickr)

WOW! You must have been reading my mind!

No, not any larger in the 2nd post.

Thanks guy, hope this is bigger. I do tend to make the skin light

lol now to big??

Excellent capture, glad to see that you've resisted the urge for excessive skin cleaning.

thanks, I hate to see plastic people!!! lol

I like the shot a lot. Her scalp is a little weird, but I think that's her fault. . .

I think it's the way she parts it, kinda looks like she has bald patches.

Nice shot. Great angle, sharp eyes, fun colors. Nicely done!

The only small thing I have is that the DOF seems a bit too shallow. You got the eyes so technically it's fine but I find the blur in the mouth a bit distracting. Again, personal preference but I figured I would put it out there.

Just what I was going to type,the mouth for me, should be focused as well.

good shot, great color, you nailed the eyes. size on 3rd try is perfect.

As said above re DOF, colour and light. Nice angle as well.
