Select or Reject: Positive/Negatives of Photos (2)

I really think the angle of this photo makes it really good and effective because of the way the model is looking up to the camera which makes the viewers feel like they are looking down at the model especially because the model is on her knees and the position of the guitar makes the model look smaller than the guitar. This provokes the viewers to feel sympathy for the model and gives the shot a 'cute' feel. The choice of background colours really helps the model blend into the black wall and do the opposite in the lower half of the shot. The black wall and wooden floor separated by the white stripe works well and separates the photo up really well. The neck of the guitar stands out extremely well against the black wall and has caught the light just perfectly as well as the rest of the guitar where the blue has turned out bright and clear. The empty floor and blank background (wall) leaves the photo free from distractions therefore keeping maximum focus on the model/guitar. The positioning of the model's arms really look good and make it look as if the model is protecting the guitar, adding focus to it.

A fault I have noticed with this photo is down in the bottom left corner where I have accidentally included an object that is not meant to be in the photo. I could crop this out but then I would be cropping out the model's shoulder so I shall have to decide if I shall use it or not. Another issue I have noticed is that the model's coloured hair roots are showing up too much against the blackness of the rest of her hair. This is easily noticeable but I could edit it in Photoshop and solve the problem.
