the hat

I am sure everybody will notice that she's looking at the camera. Is

it irritating to the viewer? Please add your opinions.

I'm not sure you could have shot it differently. At this angle (which I like), if she were looking up, then the viewer would be staring up her nostrils. As it is, her eyes deflect that focus.

Unique perspective. Nice!

Very nice indeed: certainly an eye catcher. Angle works well here. The only comment would be the hair in her left eye.

Very nicely done !!!!

Irritating..NO! Seductive ...Yes!!! I'm buying what she's selling! Just awesome work!!

I like the fact that she's looking down at the camera. With the hat forming the circle around her head, my first thought was "Christian Portrait". Those friends of mine who went on to become evangelical Christians always look down at everyone else, so this photo speaks to me.

 

On the other hand, there is a mix of petulance and irreverance in her expression too... so in that sense I like it as well.

Reminds me of a classic style b/w photo. She could be a movie star of yesteryear. I have no problem with the hair or eyes. The face framed by the hat and the net brim work well as do the arms!! WELL DONE!

Thank you everybody. I am flattered by all your comments and I never expected to have a photo displayed on the first page of Rate Recent. Thank you again.

excellent composition, cheers Jana

Oryginalny, odwazny kadr bo nie kazdy portret jest interesujacy, tym bardziej tak ujety, a pani kusi... jestem jej ciekaw... i o to chodzi.

this is perfect, or close thereto -- evocative of LOOK Magazine in the early 1960's -- not LIFE -- a bit more zip -- elegant,

Very intimate picture..... I like the swirl in the pattern of the hat, and the swirls in the model's hair

Bellisimo encuadre y magnifica luz , gamas de grises correctas, un cordial saludo Janusz.

Really a good one! Great composition and angle.

Fabulous Portrait this and I quite like the framing...
