I'm very pleased with this shot, and would love to hear how others felt about it as well. Criticism appreciated, portrait photography is something I feel I can improve allot on. Thanks!

I think it's a beautiful shot Musky, I'm with you, my portraits are my most challenging thing right now, I struggle a lot.
I love the shot but I keep wishing I could see that other eye! I feel I'm not seeing the whole feeling. Just my 2.
I like the result, Musky!
Its just a 'sudden' photo.
As for me, I prefer to work 'in contact'. I always loudly count to three (so the 'model' knows when the shot will be taken and keeps her/his eyes open and so on...)
Of course, not all of them know that I make 1,2,3 or even 6 photos during counting :-)

Thank you Lynn, thats exactly what I was looking to hear. I wondered if the photo would have been better had I gotten both eyes in the shot. Much appreciated!

Thank you so much Yuri for your input, I highly respect it. And I thank you for your tips, I will most definately try that next time a portrait opportunity arrises.
Aj I don't think you have far to go and you already know with such a beautiful subject we should see her whole face. I have enjoyed all your photographs from your time with Dani. Thnxs for sharing.
HI Aj,
I'm no portrait photog, but I like it. Usually, both eyes would be good, but I like the way the cap curves about her face. The shadow detail under the cap is excellent. Her expression seems relaxed, but the cap hides too much to tell for sure (I assume so). Now, the printing on the shirt is quite distracting. At first, I though something or someone had gotten sick:pukeon her shirt. That's just what caught my eye on first glance.
Overall, I like it, cap and all. Then again, it's hard not to have a nice shot with a model like that.
Thanks for sharing,
Chris

Thanks for your comments Chris, I appreciate it. Heh, I was wondering when someone would notice the t-shirt, lol. I think she chose that one for fear I (northern-no-rider) might suddenly have one the same style...
And I agree about the subject of course. Sure made it easy to get great shots...

you mean you don't like my Nine Inch Nails 'Downward Spiral' T-shirt????

you're model's very hot. i wonder if she's available
Hey there AJ - I've taken my time on this one and visited several times before offering this up: great shot! sweet and simple
I may have preferred not to crop so much of her head but that's just a personal preference. This shot is nicely composed, colors and light are nice, subject is interesting, girl and horse obviously connect and the girl is very pretty. I love that we only see one eye.

Thank you very much Angelo! I wish I had of framed it a bit differently, with more of Dani's head in the shot but unfortunately this is the original shot, no cropping. I appreciate your comments, thanks!
