Dorothy by the door

On a November afternoon, by a south facing door, the light was lovely.

Overall I like the pose and especially her eyes. If you did the following I am sure the ratings would jump +2 all over ... a) edit out the 'chin' above her head b) edit out the white shape near her right eye c) try just a little more dof for more focus to capture the mouth (and red lipstick?) d) crop or change the black chunk of background past the folded grey ... hope you don't mind - just my thoughts to try and help.

Try posting a smaller photo next time. On my monitor I had to scroll to see all of it. Still, it's a sensitive portrait.
