This was/is my favorite-most shot of the best of 2008 series. And I simply love it!

The expression that you have capture of her, the composition, the background color blending into the color of the subject, and the overall feel -all are excellent here. There is small glich in blown out hair (but I shall live with it).

It is a picture that stays with you...

Thanks for sharing!

Vikram

P.S. Also the subject is so beautiful. God Bless!
