Hi Paul,
Although I haven't seen the original, I think you are spot on with the composition here. Good angle, too. The progress you've gone through in the last few years is incredible - this is top notch.
CHeers,
Hugo

Gosh, THANKS, Ani! I had already uploaded this shot on Usefilm, when I realized it needed to be a tighter portrait crop, so I pulled it, re-cropped and resubmitted. I was pleased to get confirmation that this was a stronger image because of it.
Happy New Year, Ani, all the best in 2007, girl.

G'day Paul, congrats for your BIP, well deserved, this is outstanding, a lovely shot, your subjects skin tones are beautiful, lights and darks so well balanced and subtle, the 'look' is priceless, I love portraits where the subject looks at the camera, this is a very pleasing portrait of a good looking young person, well done. cheers, david.

Yes, having a beautiful model in front of the lens makes it all so much easier. Amanda is very new at this (this was only her third shoot. Ever) As such, it took a bit of coaching to get her to relax, but we did get several nice shots.
Thanks for your warm comments and honest feedback, as always, NJ!

Paul, I won't be original saying that I like the angle, lights, tones and tight crop but the true is the true. Besides that however I like the composition for the nice lines, points and great balance. I'm sure you know well how much means to have great model for your session. Congratulation for BIP, Cheers, NJ

This is great. Show the feet? What next the carpet. Her eyes and the flow of the pearls down to the bracelet over the chest is perfect . Nice outfit all matches to enhance the photo. Well done!-Rich
