Headshot

Decided to do some photos while waiting on the laundry and I felt this was the strongest photo out of the bunch. I dont think its the best in terms of lighting (I do still like the lighting) but I felt this one had more movement, expression and energy to it.

Any C&C is welcome as always.

I do see a spot above the lip I need to go back and clone out though

I want to see more of her arms..but nice one in general. Her eyes and lips are quite nice

The gesture seems quite posed and unnatural to me. Almost like she's cupping her ears because she's trying to silence the noise coming from the neighbors upstairs that are constantly playing Dub Step too loud and arguing about whose turn it is to change the babies diapers. All the while, the baby is crying because he's got a pooped pamper.

Oh... otherwise, it's a good shot. I'd prefer the light coming from a slightly higher angle though. Look at the shadow from her nose. It run laterally from the tip of her nose. Makes her nose look bent.

Be careful messing with the lip. What you see on the small image here is not nearly so noticeable in the larger sizes in Flickr.

. Also thanks for the lighting/shadow tip! always appreciated

as for the messing with the lip, my editing computers graphics card is failing (I know. sounds like excuses) which is making any edits very difficult to see what Im doing entirely. Ill see if I cant work a better version here shortly. I need a new computer
