This my third critique for this artist and my third critique overall. Each one has been for this model. One of the things that I have liked universally is, other than the exceptionally beautiful model of course, the backgrounds. This one is my favorite background by far. I love the depth of field, how in the foreground there is the peeling paint of the door frame in sharp focus and how this is beautify contrasted by the backgrounds soft focus. Add to this the lines of the floor boards which start in sharp focus and end in soft, and I have to say that this background is amazing. The other thing it does is contrast the model. All of the background is composed of straight lines and mostly 90 degree angles. This is in direct contrast to the chair and the model. This is a brilliant use of background to create a sense of design, of making the model stand out against what is really a dangerously interesting background to my mind. I think if it had been photographed in focus it would have taken away from the model here, but it does not. In fact I feel it adds a great deal to this photo.
I also like how the model is leaning forward in the chair, the way her toes are pointing so that her feet are not a flat on the floor. It adds a sense of tension to her body that says she is not at rest even though she is sitting. I also like the way her jeans are folded up and there distressed nature. It makes her seem somehow childlike and light of spirit as though she may have just come in from playing in a meadow of flowers.
The one thing that I didn’t find worked for me is the look on her face. It seemed somehow in conflict in relation to the illusion that this photo seemed to be building. I suppose if I am to be honest, to the illusion I was building by way of the photograph. To me it lacks the childlike wonder that would complete the illusion as I see it in my mind or if you wanted to take it the other way, it lacks the sense of sexuality to make it alluring in that sense. Others may disagree, in fact I welcome it. I am aware it is possible I am being hard on the photographer and maybe even the model as well, but that is only because I have seen what each of them can do together and now expect near perfection from them both.

I think that you should not be so detailed investigation of photos. Photos are created for the sake of image of and affect the sensory level. Analysis of the photos is killing this image, it shade too delicate)

Very strong image. The selling point for me is the relaxed attitude she portrays, and her expression: It's a combination of intensity and bewilderment. I love the relaxed and "un-posed-ness" of her body position - it's like she not even posing at all, like she just turned around and the photo was snapped. And a great combination of openness and concealment - again, it feels unposed in the best possible way. Also love the soft colors... the blue in the background brings out her eye color and the red blouse (?) on the chair makes for a great color counterpoint. If I had to find any fault it would be that I'd love a little more light on her face, only to bring out the beauty of her expression a bit more. It's a lovely shot!

It's a great setting and definitely top quality. There's nothing wrong with the photographer. I like it how the model is put in the bottom-left corner of the picture so the viewer will see the background too. It tells a story.
The model, however, has a few minor flaws. The most obvious one is her index finger on her right hand. Both index fingers are pointing towards the ground, while the others are bent inwards. But her right index finger is also crooked, going sideways. I'd almost thing she has broken it once and it never healed correctly.
Another remark is her fave. Not sure if make-up was used or not, but she seems to have a bit hollow eyes. Combines with her lack of a smile, she reminds me of "Dawn of the Dead" or a drugs addict. Then again, the paleness of her face compared to the color of her torso just strengthens this effect. She is a beautiful model, but in this picture her face just looks bad. If this was the purpose of the photographer, job well done! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w… " width="15" height="15" alt="
Assuming that you're wanting to display some state of decay, since the setting and her pants are in dire need of repairs, her face does look good in this picture, thus I like the technique. You might not have done this on purpose but I actually like this composition. I like the model looking as strange as she does in this setting. I'm just not sure if that's your vision on this picture too.

I like this photo more than the other. This one has a great composition rule of thirds runs better.
Depth of field is correct.
The girl looks relaxed.
No distractions in the background.
Colors are subtle.
Just take a look at the backrest of the chair (post processing problems 
I really like it. sorry my english

The main thing I notice in this image is what seems to be a stark contrast between two themes: One being the poverty of the setting, her clothes, and even down to her shoes and socks; The other being the very healthy complexion of her skin [especially from the shoulders down], the brilliant vibrance of her bright blue eyes, and her perfectly styled hair. I almost feel like there was some indecisiveness behind this portrait. I can tell that the aim is for her to be a very poor yet very beautiful girl; a diamond in the rough in a sense. But to me, it seems like the elements that went into making her appear beautiful, broke the theme of poverty. This model obviously has a natural beauty that would shine through, regardless of what make up and preparation she did or did not have. Therefore, maybe if she wasn't so "perfect" from the waist up: hair a little messy, a little dirty, and just overall looking less like a supermodel and more at home in her surroundings. But, that's just my opinion.
Also, in regard to her fingers, as WimTenBrink pointed out, it looks like it could be partly an optical illusion, or, like me, she has a juvenile form or arthritis. If the latter is the case, please let her know that I feel her pain. Arthritis in young people is never a good thing.

Dignity, style, What beauty, dignity, style and composition in this remarkable image. It breaks just about every rule in the book and yet it is simply stunning. Your colors are washed in faded but it softens the image and makes it as comfortable as the jeans she wears. She is an understated beauty but without makeup, fancy clothing, excessive jewelry, or expensive styling. This is one of the finest images I've seen this year and I want to thank you for sharing.
The only negative thing I can say about the whole shot is a think the background is a toner two to light but in the sense of the image as a whole it is extremely minor. I love the way you are pulled back again and again to the remarkable eyes on this beautiful lady. I cannot say enough nice things about this shot.
This is a very well done image.

Great picture !
Wunderschone Farben !
The blue of the eyes and the blue of the denim include the model in the general color of the picture. The pink shirt underlines the nudity wich is denied by the position of the arms and hair.
The model's attitude is so sensual, she seems to be all togather naked and not.
It is amazing !
I like this picture very much !

Again a wonderful picture with a great model. Looks spontaneous, like a snapshoot, but it's hard preparing, or?
