Portrait

you for your time.

Great face and a very interesting effect with a daring use of overexposure, but hard to judge because monitors can vary so much. Based on what I see, I probably would have went for more tonality and detail in the face.

I find I agree and disagree with the above comments - in other words, I think this is excellent as it is, but another and different portrait could be made using the suggestion above for more tonal range in the face. I think you would then have two excellent images. This portrait does what a portrait of an unknown person (to the viewer here on p.net) should do - make me wonder about her - can you tell us anything about her? Either way, this is excellent, and thanks for sharing it-

Great job. And the overexposure is just right for me.

you did a great job and I think the face is just right

... very good portrait ...

by far (IMO) your most interesting portrait. The contradiction said with the white pure dress and background against the old and scarry face shows the interesting person that is may be hidden underneath. Secondly it does a great job (although centered) to show an antithesis on the softness against the hard face with lines. Great contrast work. If I had taken this photo and seen this I would delete many portraits of my portfolio. I'm doing it already with many photos of mine. What would go this one step further is make her with closed eyes or with a black band around them...just a thought. The whole purpose of photography is imagination in creation. Really great work

Hi Amer, the "digital dark room" editing and the option you have chosen are fiting perfectly for the great face of this women. Congratulations, Loic
