Photographing Pareidolia
"Pareidolia is the tendency for perception to impose a meaningful interpretation on a nebulous stimulus, usually visual, so that one detects an object, pattern, or meaning where there is none.*"

On the road
It looked like a pursuit, but in reality, it was a peaceful movement.

Needs Work!
I see these comments on many photos - BTW - those who are putting comments like "Needs Work" should elaborate to say what is needed according to them.

Love the colors! Well done!
The first one is my favorite. I love the reflected light from the pool deck.
The two of her in the yellow suit are, in my opinion, the weakest of the bunch. The way the shadows fall across her face is a huge distraction. I would have posed her away from the direct light or put the sun behind her as in the first shot.
The next two of the green suit are really nice. In fact, now that I look again, those two are my favorites, especially the overhead shot. Very simple and clean and the green looks good on her.
I assume the last one was a "behind-the-scene" snapshot?
Thanks! Both the floating shot and the pool shot in the green suit were posed - all with the intention of capturing a "candid" moment.
I can see what you mean with the sunlight being distracting - but for me it adds interest. Really value your insight!
