You uploaded this in my 'transitional' period it seems and I missed it. I really like the composition of this shot. In one frame of mind I really like the attention that is focused on the color of the eyes and hair balanced with the processing of the facial skin. The black background is the only way to go. The whole combination really works. Really sets a mood and a point of view. Very expressive. Nice work!

However, on the other hand I kind of agree with Jimmy, but I feel that would really change the mood and intention of the shot.

Did you know I really hate being torn?
Did you also know that the larger half of the tear is on the first paragraph of this post?

Great shot Roxanne!

WOW! That is some timing and an awesome shot. Definitely, if there ever was one, this is a case of being in the right place at the right time. I love the clouds and the composition - excellent balance in the image. Good exposure control too. The clouds are great and I love the range of colors in them. Nice job Roxanne! A keeper no matter what!

As a side note - do you have noise reduction software? If not, send me the original and I will run it through NI and send back for your processing. But this version doesn't look all that noisy. Clouds and grays look that way normally lots of times - especially clouds - they are a grainy subject by nature really.

Again, great shot! I would love a print of this. Hope you were not caught in the storm that surrounds it.

Great shot. The background is beautiful...a nice contrast to the deep red legs. Well done.
