This was taken this past saturday evening, outside with available

light on Illford 400 C41.

I'm trying a new arty aproach to my portraits let me know what you

think please!

I definitly like this, very intimate.

it seems that her eye and cheek are focused and her nose isant and it makes the pictures seem off to me. Maybe its just my veiwing from my computer though. I like the coloring

That was my intent actually..I shot it at macro stopped down to 2.8 to get that effect.

Very nice, I like this, coloration is great.

The compasition is great. Love the depth of feild fall off from the eye to the nose. I Love it. Good job. I also love that you have to really look to see if it's a B&W sepia print or a color print.

IMHO, this is your best shot in that folder!

You show some amazing insight on you portraits. IMO I'd try and be a little more critical of some of the images you submit for ratings. This is the nicest one I've seen in this folder. Overall, this is your strongest area and your strength seems to lie in your willingness to take chances most photographers won't (getting locked into a formula for all their image creation.) Unfortunately, it appears the web site in general, kind of supports the pretty picture formula'd approach to the higher rated pictures. Try not to get caught in that, we all want praise with our art but most of us aren't really willing to venture out of the envelope. Keep up!
