Trying a tight composition and lighting. I guess I should use a reflector to cover the shadows.

I took this photo at home, with one flash and one umbrella.

Should have use a reflector, but I like the composition. Any comments

are appreciated!

Actually I quite like it the way it is. The 'missing eye' gives the image a picasso-esque feel, especially as most of the throat is missing also. Perhaps more Dali than Picasso. Most effective.

In a portrait like this, shadows add to the sitter. I like this shot; the composition doesn't add or take and her face really gets your attention thanks to the frozen spontaneity you captured here.

I wish to see this picture in Velvia. It can potentially have a extremely striking effect.
