Congratulations to the winners!
I think I personally would like to see it just a little lighter. I like pose and the look, and I love the contrast between her skin and her outfit.
Thanks for the feedback! Do you mean lighter as in lifting the blacks or in a bit more exposure overall?
Yeah let me clarify. Every time I look at this picture, the first thing I think of is that I wish I could see her face just a little bit more, and that her skin looks really reddish pink.
I like how dark the clothing is, and the background works really well for the overall picture too. I think it's literally just the face and neck. I think it's something you could easily bring up in post.
Really do think this is an excellent shot though. Just trying to provide some useful feedback!
Thank you for taking the time for writing your feedback! It's much appreciated :)
