    Thank you very much. The eyes were only sharpened. She has amazing eyes in nature.

    This draws me in. Great atmosphere and the impression of a fleeting moment. My favorite type of portrait.

    Thank you all for the comment.
    Oooops I think I made a misstake - I wrote that it is Canon 5d mark II but it is not - it was my old Canon 5d.
    Sorry for the misstake.

    Great image Tom!

    I was just wondering on this, you've done softening as well though, no?

    Malte,
    It is not softening, if you would see 100% zoom you would see the skin texture. I have done dodge and burn to make the tones even .

    Best regards,

    I was thinking of the bend in her hair to her right being in focus, and all of the hair going down being out of focus. Just looked a bit improbable, to not have been softened.

    Lovely portrait. Looks like tilt shift with such fine use of selective forcus.
