Hello, Here is a very joyful expression which catches the eye and communicates a beautiful joy of living. Technically the photo is well done especially with this angle of view per mm, a good sharpness and a good management of the lights. In the end, the black and white treatment enhances the composition and the proposed image deserves to be ranked first, because it corresponds to what I was looking for in this challenge. Congratulations Dominique
Hello, The expression is quite extraordinary and it is well rendered. If I liked the attitude of the model, I find the composition a little too central, with a gap on the left and a truncated part on the right. I will add that a better sharpness of the oval of the face may have strengthened the expression. That is why, it is at the gates of my Top 10 and not higher. However it is a beautiful photo, pleasant to look at, with expression and very alive. Well done Dominique

Hello, This photo intrigued me from my first visit to the 1500 photos. You perfectly master your know-how and this reinforces the creative idea. To be a purist, maybe I didn't find enough emotion and a more successful black and white treatment to propel her onto the podium. It remains, however, an attractive and pleasant image that deserves its place in my top 10 for its creative aspect. Well done Dominique

Hello, The black and white treatment is magnificent in the service of light management: it is a very successful photo that you offer us. I liked the composition of the photo and the attitude of the model. It is at the gates of my Top 10 and not higher, because it lacks a little fantasy and the look is a little too direct for my taste, in any case a little too calm. However it is a beautiful photo Well done Dominique
