You might be not a good poser, but you look very good in the photo. Your mixed media work was well done. It looks a bit like a season greeting card which could be send any time in winter, The fur and the snowy background are perfect for it. There are some lines on the back of the hand, which I believe are to pronounced and there is something like a crack across the thump. You might consider to brush those two minor distractions out. Best Luck for the contest!

    Thank you so very much for the lovely review Cleo. I did some adjustments, but the cracks across the thumb were actually just wrinkles.

    Strange how wrinkles show up with an oil filter, isn't it. I was wondering what might happen there, but never thought of wrinkles. Anyway, I think now the wrinkles lock like wrinkles.

Very beautiful and not a bad job for a selfie my friend. One hot mama! I love how the fur frames your face and the snowy background adds excellent texture to this piece. Beautiful colors. Outstanding job and thanks for sharing.

Wow, great work, like the edit, super good exposure, focus and all well framed. Top of the line work Annie. Love it and so well presented. A wintertime look for sure.

initial impact is very good. i love the snow covered trees in the background. you are definitely dressed for the cold. the oil painting filter looks nice. blends right in. your facial expression is good. you don't have your mouth open trying to say something, you aren't blinking, what more could you ask for. i wish i had a remote. i shake so bad i'm in blurry just about every shot. it's rather frustrating. you did well though. centered nicely, sharp focus, and no problem with glaring white snow. nice job.

Super portrait. Or should I say "selfie"? The detail is exquisite. I suppose get dressed for winter in Oslo takes a bit of effort. Great shot. Cheers, James.

Very nice. Very creative too... winter jacket with the trees behind... great idea. Love how the fur frames your face... and the post-processing makes you look 20.

    Thank you so very much for the lovely review Nan and for the compliment. Not bad for a woman being 67. LOL

Annie. I love this! The outfit and the pose are perfect and also so appropriate for the wintery background. The clarity is truly amazing and visually stunning and made even more so by the contrast of the dark fur and coat against the background. Beautiful natural skin tones. An original and perfect entry for the contest. Great job!
