Originally posted by bassbone: An almost startled look on this proud woman. The processing and conversion to duetone really shows the fine detail in her face. Was she aware that you were taking her picture or was this a candid?

Thanks for the comments.. Actually came across this woman at the marketplace in Dubai while shooting candids with a friend. He requested her for a few shots and she happily obliged. While he was clicking away, i took a few shots without her being aware. This one was taken just when she realised that i was clicking her too, and hence the surprised expression which i loved best! :-)

Thanks for the kind comment.. This happens to be a colleague of mine from work, and she has really beautiful expressive eyes. So i requested her to pose for me. This one was done in office (wouldn't want my boss to find out :-p), with natural light coming in through the window. I would have liked to have had some more sharpness, and find the glare of the outside light falling on her left pupil distracting, but to be fair, it was a hurried shot taken after work, and she wouldn't pose for me indefinitely :-)
