Very nice lighting and glow on your face there Lauren. I woud be tempted to blur / soften the window handle though. Maybe even crop the LH curtain out.

Wow that's great!!! Nice light!!! Love the almost silhouette of the shoes and your fringe masking some light off your face, I only have one criticicm and that would be to get your dad to get the vertical blinds out the way , it kind of stops your eyes flowing off the rest of the picture.... If you see what I mean....it kinda cuts your legs short and disrupts the natural composure, other that that I think it's bloody great!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like!
Very tones!
I know what the others mean but I don't think there is any major issue!
Maybe some selective blur would suffice to remove some of the "distractions"... it might might not work due to the straight on angle...
Example of what I mean
I personally think it's good as is, the decor adds to it's dateability as an image ... In 30 years the decor will look unfamiliar somehow and that I think, although not so obvious now adds stuff to images!
Look at photos from the 60's/70's and the decor adds to the image ... Does that make sence?

Very nice shot , I prefer it with the left blind onwards cropped out but I guess thats a matter of taste.

I think if anything it needs a bit less of a tight crop above your head ... I think that would take away any distractions that the above mention!

ye this is doing it for me, really good & different self portrait, i can live with the blinds the window handle coming down from the knee kind of distracts me more than anything. I would have also like the whole image to have been a little sharper. Other than that Awesome work.....!!
