Oh oh....
Why do I have to critique this one? It looks familiar if I may say so.....
Well.... If it was inspired by Breeze (see my portfolio) I am flattered.
I would see it as a big compliment if somebody thinks my work is good enough to try it their selfs.
So I hope it's inspired by it.
About Muckpods comment I just want to say: The great Picasso said: Good artists copy, great artists steal. I did it before, and stole the idea from Librodo, Librodo stole it from Kiwiness and Kiwiness stole it from the Afghan Girl.
Ok , enough, on to the photo.
There is something about those eyes. I cant put my finger on it, but they look unreal. I like the look of the girl, and the shallow DOF. Only the face is too soft. There's just not enough detail for my taste.
I think if you rotated the photo so that the eyes where horizontal and crop it a bit tighter on the left and the top this photo could have scored better, especially with tack sharp eyes, the most important for me in a portrait.
Well, this is all personal opinion off course. I still like the photo.
