April 10, 2010 9:27pm I love this photo. I like how bright and out of place she is. Like I know when i was in high school i was always out of place with my pink hair and punk attitude. I just love this photo so much. your an amazing photographer. <3
August 10, 2009 4:58am Notice the flagpole in the background is leaning to the left. You need to check for those things if you're going to include the background. Its' an easy fix. The other point I'd like to make is what does the location have to do with the photo? What composition where you after? I like to use a telephoto or portraiture lens that will naturally blurr the background. You can use a focal point correction in PS but it always looks phony to me.
Subject is awesome and a great photo. Put her in front of wall full of graffiti and you have an award winning photo.
Good Luck!
