Susana, You are very beautiful and the title is very suiting as well!
Aloha, dear friend :)

7/30/2006 12:11:42 AM

It's obvious SJ hasn't lost his touch, Susana ~ it's a lovely, luminous portrait. And your PS work is the frosting on the cake! Gorgeous!

7/30/2006 12:12:07 AM

With those features you could easily pass for one of the hula dancers on any of the troupes here, Susan :-)! Excellent skin tones and composition to go along with the outstanding lighting! Come to Hawaii and learn how to weave a "haku" lei for your head!!
Great job, Sanjay!!
Much Aloha,
Stan

Very beautiful Susan!! You should be a model!!

7/30/2006 12:37:57 AM

A beautiful and striking portrait, Susana! I love your work on this: the tones are superb! The title's perfect too!

7/30/2006 12:57:18 AM

My theory is different, beautiful word is open to all.

I've observed that many people are attractive but why they are attractive is difficult to define!!! They are not necessarily beautiful!!!

You are attractive with touch of beauty, this is a rare combination and you enhanced this feature by applying appropriate effects and tone in this portrait.

Your efforts are reflecting in this job.

Well Done!!!

7/30/2006 1:03:38 AM

Very Impressive, Susana...So Soft...Very Beautiful Image of you...You & SJ make a Great Team!! :^)

7/30/2006 1:18:43 AM
