bw pictures Need for tenderness

tnx for critique

Sorry for this remark, but the leave on the lower side is a bit too bright. Therefor it asks a bit too much for attention. But I find this a very good photo. Good light and nice composition.

Hi Stefany, is this self portrait ? I find it is very remarkable and very original. Regarding the "bright" leave I don't find it too distracted, but would have prefered to see it removed or placed somewhere else (rather than in front of the eyes). Congrats ! Loic

Yes, It's self :)

tnx for the comment

This is refreshingly simple and direct. There's something quite open about it. I can barely make out the lower eye looking at me from behind the lighted leaf . . . an effective statement, not one to be "liked" or easily absorbed. The tension of the vertical tulip and the horizontal position of your head provides another layer to this portrait, as does the softened focusing. You handled the light delicately.
