    Amazing background, too. If I had some sort of award to give, I'd give it to you. :D

    Lovely light, lovely wife! thumb.gif

    I'm curious though why you chose a landscape orientation. The shot seems kind of crowded what with just partial neck and no shoulders.

    because of the background..the nice polk dotty pattern only covered part of the wall.

    The wrong eye is in focus, I think you have a little too much of an angle on her face.

    Excellent! I like the vignette helping to keep the focus on your beautiful subject and how you utilized that busy background without it managing to overwhelm her.

    she IS beautiful, and the light IS too :D

    Now ... I guess my rule-of-the-thirds trained eye is trying to find the balance ... I think I would have tried to have her more on the left side + I think the crop is a litttttle bit too tight ... aaaaaaaand (and that might be just me :D), I'd clone out the tip of her ear that is peeking out (NOT that she has big ears, just think it would look nicer in the pic) thumb.gif

    great shot. i'd like to see her head slightly more to the camera so her eyes are not quite so far sideways. Or, have her look off camera.

    Daniel, I think you and Alex (the Anonymouscuban) should go toe-to-toe to see who can post the best photos of your two very cooperative and beautiful spouses! iloveyou.gif
