Yeah, second crop (and frame). But that sholder-head meeting thing...just not comfortable!

its going nowhere mister!
just practice pratice and then practice some more:p |
what I meant by "where it's going" is that I am asking, which area of photography are you "practicing" in, if your exploring headshots, glamour,portrait...ect. Each different style is achieved via different techniques, composition and lighting. So my question was about "photographic intent/direction".

That's a shame. It's a rare person that can earn a ribbon on both sides of the lens. ;-) |

Not sure I quite agree with that. A lot of the best headshots have the top of the head cropped. Check out Kevyn Major Howard's portfolio.
Nagul - The second version with the tighter crop is much better IMO. Excellent catchlights in her eyes.
