Comment. There is too much "blurred window" background, which is distracting in a non-interesting way. Perhaps it could be cropped more tightly. 2A00:23C8:7B08:6A00:A1B5:9D8F:29CE:2A8 (talk) 23:10, 7 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
My two cents about the DOF and crop: I see both as artistic effects (or choices). This is a portrait of a person, the focal point is her face and it's sharp where it should be. Reviews on DOF and crop are valid subjective critiques though. On the technical side: there isn't much of a range in setting the DOF. Capturing the ambient lit background and the fill flash foreground limits the aperature/exposure time/ISO settings. A deeper DOF could introduce motion blur or noise. It would also sharpen the bokeh, which isn't the intent here. This is a well done photo technically IMO. Bammesk (talk) 18:03, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support I like the DOF and the composition. Way too many times, portraits are boring headshots, this has a bit of character to it --Muhammad(talk) 13:00, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
