Sidelong

O.K., so the biting of the lips thing, is making me fall in love. Don't show it again, please! Hehehe. Actually, this photo is pulling me in two directions. I like the landscape, and the space on the right( although a part of me wants even more space, almost panaramic length), but the fine detail in her hair makes me want a portrait format, so I can see the full length of her hair, you know?

Lee, I am wondering what kind of practices/trainings or it's a gift for you to achieve such gracefulness in your works. I really like your style! The lighting on this one is perfect and her expression...no words for that!

7/7.

beautiful.

I agree, beautiful. But I also agree with the first post - I want to see the empty space she is gazing into. But then again, I like the mystery of not knowing what she is looking at. OK, I changed my mind. Great photo.

Perfect Portrait 7/7

...but children like to act, don't they?

Beautiful shot,,

Very interesting comments.

I'm not too worried about the cropping of the bottom or right side-maybe the bottom could be cut a little.The top is definitely cropped to close though

The look is briefly intriguing.The emotions look excellent at first but then i see that she is young and well,acting :)

This is Dara, one of my great friends... This was taken on her first

day ever of modeling as well as my first time working with a model.

 

All comments and criticisms are greatly appreciated, thank you.

Ya.. Even she is acting.. ok, but she is acting very well enough.. Her eye fill with emotion.. I really like her innocent expression .. I think she really got a future.. I look forwrad to see more of her ,, please ..

Very nice portrait of a very pretty girl.

I signed up for the website to say that!

I like the richness of the hair very much.

I like the tilted head and the void where

the head is pointing to. BG could be improved.

The BG on the left side didn't work?

Also as someone said, need more room above her

head.

As far as the BG goes this was shot outside, not in a studio. On the right BG is a tree and the left BG are the branches and leaves in the distance.

Yeah, I could guess. So the left bg was still

too complicated even with shallow DOF, rather

than making the picture interesting. I see.

In general, I enjoy looking at your pictures.

 

Great one!
