Nights in white lace.

I actually like this quite a bit. If I could change one thing, it would be to see more of your shoulder in the right image of you. Very minor detail as I can't stop looking at your eyes anyway. It is perhaps the monitor problem that caused some of the low votes. Of course, I like the "edited" face look. I did some very light editing on mine and still got the "you over edited this" comments. LOL You should be proud to be able to add this to your portfolio. It is very creative and very unusual and your lighting is excellent. As Monica mentioned, the differences in expression are also very captivating and interesting :)

Gosh, sorry that is so long, but I hope it helps :) Also, your average vote from commenters is really really good :)

My fave!! You connected with the viewer here in a way that I don't see in any of the others. In all of those, you are either looking away or you look uncomfortable or it seems like fake emotion. In this one, your eyes say it all :)

I am not voting, just viewing and commenting a couple... I just have to say, this is going to win a blue ribbon. This is the best macro splash shot I have ever seen. You nailed the colours and the focus is sublime. It even looks like it has a head just like the movie. If this is Irene, WOW girl, all that practice has sure paid off, you get better and better!! If not, you should know that you and IreneM have a lot in common :) Let me be the first to congratulate you! LOL
