Hello again, folks!

This friend of mine... well, she was waiting for me, but she didn't expect I'd come pointing a camera at her! ;-)

When she realized that resistance was futile, I fired away!

Here's the result!

Hope you guys enjoy this portrait!

Take care!

PS: She really loved the picture, when I showed it to her on the next day!

    Hey Thiago
    Always nice to see your work. Full face portraits can be diificult but you did a good job here.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    thumb.gif Really nice, Thiago. I like the soft light, it's very flattering. And you have an attractive model with a nice smile. That's a very nice shot.

    Thanks, people!
    Harry: nice to see you here too! :-)
    I'm glad you really liked this portrait. I'm doing exactly the same as Lynn: practicing, that's all...

    John and Sid: Thanks so much! I'll definitely forward the compliments to her as well! :-)

    Lynn: Hey hey! Like you on the other thread, I'm practicing too. It's just so fortunate that we can share the results. I'm also really glad you loved mine! As for the crop, I really haven't tried cropping yet, since I don't usually do it (only cropping I do is like this one, to fit the picture in an 8x10).

    Yuri: Thanks so much for the kind words. You're definitely one of the culprits for my love of natural light. This kind of light seems to *invite* us to shoot, don't you think so? :-)

    All of you, thanks so much again!
    Take care!
