Congratulations to the winners!
People are crazy voting this a 2.
that's the internet, what do you think
Do you think it's too generous?
Weird crop, spontaneous pose, so-so lighting with very srtange shadows on the neck,,, should I continue?
I think such model certainly deserves a better photograph than this one.
It ain’t a two.
It ain’t a four. But it certainly ain’t a two either.
the internet is full of personal likes, dislikes and opinions and everyone is entitled to them.
What buggered me the most is the missing feet. - how can you not have them there on a staged shot?
Alexa is fun to work with.
she's a great model!
Great model & mood, but the crop hurts it.
I can’t agree with your claim that the photo is downvoted maliciously.
I agree with the comments about the crop. It feels off with her legs cut off like that. The building in the background is distracting as well.
Also the light/shadow distribution on her body is off. Her legs and face are the same brightness, shadows on her neck do her a lot of disservice - these look like scars or as if her neck was dirty.
Normally I would not leave such comment as it is always unpleasant to hear criticism about ones work. However, it seems to me, that you think that people are mean and that’s why the photo has low marks. There are serious technical issues here and it has got nothing to do with personal taste.
First of all, I have not said one thing about the image being or not being good/or a 2,3 or otherwise. I entered for the fun of it. and yes it could use some editing work. I was shot years ago when I was just getting the hang of editing. could the crop be a little better sure for sake of not arguing fine. now to the meat of the matter, could this be used in a portfolio? which is the rating system, if yes then you have to give it a 3 no matter what is wrong with it in your opinion. If not then you give it a 2 to say it needs some work before it is used. This is the rating system that Fstoppers has come up with. Some people will think it is a 3 and good enough for portfolio and some people with not. I don't care either way as I shot this years ago and it was used as intended.
i think it would be much better to step away for one step
I'ts not a two. NOT, A, TWO. Re-crop it if you can and find her feet, move her to the left of the image. It's a really good shot man. Pretty girl.
