I went to see Peter Pan last month and they kept talking about Wendy having a "kiss in the corner of her mouth". It was such an odd phrase to me that it really stuck in my mind. Then I saw photos from a fashion show (couldn't tell you who's, the magazine was in Japanese) where they drew bright red lips over to one side a good inch or so. I got the idea for this shot instantly, and I just had to wait for a challenge that it fit!

Nowhere's near the contrast needed to make this picture work. Looks like a normal pic that is over exposed in a high key attempt. Had you shown the whole face, and, it wasn't so light, it may have worked better for you.
Overtones of lesbianism here? Somehow I'm not sure - it's such a placid shot, such a gentle tonal range and gentle focus, I would perhaps have expected something more heavily worked. But I like that dichotomy, anyway. Good work. 7
