 We're in Spain!! This is a photo of me (looking lovely as usual) getting ready to start our first lesson of flamenco dancing. The hall isn't yet set up yet (thats not a models job, so while waiting I was practicing my modelling - looking fierce and sexy. In this photo I was so excited and exhilarated that I was in Spain and about to start our first lesson of flamenco dancing, I just couldn't sit still and contain myself! ;D |

Joan: Aw you’re so cute you go with getting ready for a class for a tango dance class. I do not think this is a bad photo. Unfortunately for you Sarah when we put everyone else’s photos together, this will probably come out the most plain and dullest photo of them all. I like what you went with here since I am guessing you had a tough time finding a photo for Spain. I like your pose and how your body is turned to the camera. Not a big fan of the lighting but it works well with the setting. The dress and your hair is also cute but like I said this doesn’t leave a big impression on me sadly.

Beth: I agree with Joan. I also have some issue with the lighting. But you look beautiful here. The styling was just okay for me. I think you can do better than this. I'm not really impressed with this photo as much as I was impressed with your photos before. It's a tough week and it took lot of time and effort. Thank you for that.

Amanda: That light is just too bright. It's almost consuming you. It almost conceals your face. It surely takes the focus off of you. I'm also not seeing the Spanish connection - this photo could have been taken before pretty much any kind of dance lesson. The styling is just okay. It doesn't WOW me, especially given the lighting. I do like your hair and the idea, but again it just doesn't seem to relate to the concept. You most certainly do not look like a Flamenco dancer. They typically wear red and black because it's a COLORFUL type of dance. That's perhaps my biggest problem here - this photo is drab. There's no color. It's devoid of the emotion you want it to have. Like Joan, I really don't see myself remembering this photo after this is all said and done. Sorry Sarah, but you should be concerned this round :/

Anna: Unfortunately, I've got to agree with the other judges my dear. The styling doesn't work because it's completely wrong for the "Flamenco" (which you specifically mentioned in your description), and the lighting doesn't work because it has put your eyes into shadow (which takes away from the "fierce and sexy" look you described). I do think your pose works (even though you're killing the dress), and I like the movement in your hair. All in all, you really do look lovely, but I don't see Spain whatsoever, and that's a shame.
