Lady in Blue

her eyes, the mouth: very beautiful model! and her dress has a very impressive color too!

i really like it: well done!

Thanks guys for you kind comments. Brian, it will probably be more appealing if I crop the image up to tummy minus her arms. It will stand out on it's own merit. However I included it because it reminds me of some Renaissance paintings where the delicate hands are featured prominantly. The posture also makes the image different from many other half portrait submissions. Even though her hand appear slightly larger as I was at waist level for this shot I am intrigued by the clarity combine with the soft posture.

There are actually many more images of KEL but I'll post it only if there are request for more from PN members as some might find it repitative.

Very nice Alec!

Thanks Peepeye, Gerry. Christopher, I use natural lighting and this is shot in the balcony with a reflector on the left. Here's another shot cropped.
