Hi everyone, i am trying to use all the infomation from previous image critiques. This is of a neighbour of mine at a local park, i found in the image i shot it was overexposed and i wasn't too crash hot on the colours, i have edited it the image in CS2, any further ideas on how to improove the image further? or have i made a mess of it? thanks. kristen

colour treatment: perfect
eye contact: perfect
composition: perfect
focus: not so perfect.
thats my only complaint, the eyes look slightly OOF. otherwise i think its fabulous. imo for a portrait to work, (especially when there is eye contact), the eyes must be spot on.

Rooz has summed this up nicely.
I'd like to see a tad more contrast in the image too.

I agree with Geoff. I little more contrast would take such a pale subject and add some more depth to the face. It may be my moniter but the boy's looking a little to albino.
Nice crop and eye contact though. Lovely Portrait.

While you are adjusting contrast, I would lighten the dark blue shirt as well... Good one.
