very beautiful,my friend...I prefer to see your excellent shots in closer crop.maybe you could use a little bit less backgrounds and foreground...this is just my opinio!!.best regards.

Hi Andrew

I have discovered recently your impressive portfolio, and decided immediately to follow you.

This is my first comment on your work, and as many others, is a great shot.

I like in particular the light, composition and the use of few colors.

I agree with Mehmet concerning the crop.

Thanks for your great work

José

very nice... better in closer crop. good job

An intense photograph, I like this black and red colors. The thirds rule is a bit too strong realised here? (6) hen Ry

Beautiful colours and great use of lighting. Congrats.

Mehmet, Jose, Niki, Hen and Raymond;

 Thank you very much for your visit and comments.

My main problem with cropping the image was to maintain 1:1.5 proportions. Rule of thirds was a secondary issue.  The crop I chose has more breathing room in front of the model,  but extra space at the top. My second choice was less space above but at the same time less “breathing” room in front.

I think that you will be more inclined toward the second choice.

See above.

Hi Andrew

I think the photo has improved with the new crop,even if it lost some breathing space.

Usually I prefer portraits with strong crop, but it is my opinion.

Congratulations once again.

Regards from Portugal.
