the use of color is great (the balance of blues)

interesting DOF. was this enhanced in post processing? what's your EXIF data for this one? It's interesting that her back is in focus yet her feet which aren't on that different a plane are totally blurred.

it's because I cheated.

Beautiful image! Is that taken with an open aperture to create that focus, or did you do it on pc after the shot was taken?

telephoto lens. but it was a candid shot and i didnt have time to switch to a prime lens, so i cheated afterwards. it looks fake now and i kinda hate it, but you guys seem to like it

It has nice colours and nice concept - few people look beyond that

I wish it didn't have the fake blur. It's a bit much. And the emotion is seemingly beyond boredom.

There is something about this that I'm in love with. I don't think you should move it to scraps. I love the simplicity and I love how my eyes are drawn to everything instead of just one particular point...if that makes any sense...

the absolute thing a pessimist could do, open an umbrella when it's not even raining. fantastic.

I don't think you need to move this into scraps. I like the striking shape that the colours are in, and the background is pretty nifty, too!

Boring is made beautiful here.
The composition is lovely, especially since it's not too busy. The blurring of the cityscape to bring the blue bench (and it's occupant) into focus works nicely. The colour, while drawing the eye in, doesn't overpower the picture, nor does it seem out of place. It leaves me with a sense of..."trying". As if, whoever painted that bench was making a genuine effort to cheer up the neighborhood, and the owner of the blue umbrella has been affected. Which is another thing, the symmetry in colours works, as well as the almost-neutral colours she wears.
However, the part which I found worked the best was the blurring of the righthand corner of the umbrella, to keep it away from the edge of the photograph. It holds off any tension that could've been created between the umbrella and the side of the piece. The one thing I might suggest is to bring the blurring down a bit closer to the top of the bench, if only a little, so as to keep it from being a distraction.
Overall, though (fancy critique talk aside) I like it!

It's good... You should improve a bit the blur as DoF and that's all!

I love the blues and how one of the windows in the distance is actually more clear than the others. It's kind of like this is what is being viewed and the things in focus are what she is focusing on.

great concept and its obviously gotten good attention, the only thing is that where you blurred it is sooooo obvious. mabey work on that? i donno i love it otherwise!

Seriously, don't move it, I really like the blues.

I love the matching blues. Like everyone's been saying, the only thing wrong would be the blur underneath the bench...otherwise it's perfect!

The blue color kinda signifies a depressing rainny day.

i like the blurry background but why is it so blurry under the bench..and only some of her is clear..anywayz..its a good photo

if you wanted to make it more appealing, all you would need to do is get rid of the blur under the bench. it's part of the main focus too

i wouldn't move it, i like it, but i do agree with =Davou - i don't like the blur under the bench- its a great piece though

i like it. it's calm and serene. *shrugs* but that's just my 2 cents, take it as you will

the colors are really vibrant but the cut between the bench and the rocks is pretty sketchy. nice work anyway.
