    here we go, undiluted dear, just like a bottle of hooch lol3.gif

    her pose seems to be somewhat unnatural to me. i love the angle pose in general, but here your model doesn't seem happy about it. i think she's leaning a bit much forward, maybe that's it...what's the bg? those light blue stripes detract for me. i find myself wanting more definition of the facial features, which you'd accomplish with some lighting changes. her eyes are lovely lynnie - i hope you can shoot her again!

    thanks for posting and i hope you'll give us more portraits.

    She is beautiful! I agree that she looks a little uncomfortable and the focus seems to be on her neck and shirt. Great color!
