lol. no need to explain. I'm just joking.

Wow! The clarity and coloring of this portrait are flawless. The eyes go straight to your irises. I like how your background brings out the blue in your eyes. Or is that just a reflection? Very nice work.

*grin* Thanks guys... you're right about the light in the back being so bright. I forgot i had the cell in my hand when I took the photo. I put the camera on ESP metering and placed it on a ledge and set the timer.

I agree also that the necklace is distracting from the shot... but, I always wear a shell necklace ;) Oh well. I'll play with some cropping options and see what I can come up with. :)

I like the reflections in your eyes here. Good focal point. Nice backgroud colour too. Bright nose and forehead but not toooooo distracting.

Needs a crop... maybe with you on the left and a tiny bit of the car on the right?? Light coming in that door is too much imho, BUT... the pose is good and the glasses aren't reflecting all over the place (don't know HOW you pulled that off with all that light) and the expression on your face fits the title. Overall, good image. Just needs a crop :)

really really cool. the cell phone and the shell necklace kinda take away from the ambiance u got goin on her but i really like this idea and the perspective of the shot is really cool!
