When you take such a beautiful picture of yourself you put us photographers to shame. The first thing that I sense are your eyes. What beautiful eyes you have. As if that isn't enough, I get a second wammy from your smile. This picture says a lot about you as a person and as a photographer. You love what you do. Keep up the good work. I would love to see your interpretations of others also. #8202

Well taken. It is not easy to make self portraits come out the way we want. This image looks well exposed and composed. Was it cropped or was your composition also bang on right from the get go? great job #28632

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the comments. In regard to the cropping, I crop all of my photos. I love close cropping and with a self-portrait it is very difficult to get the picture centered properly. It took quite a few to get a few centered ones. Keep trying is what I say! Thanks everyone!

Hello Lorraine, I like the way the
photo uses light and dark values.
Without sounding...well you know.

beautiful as you. Proffesional
comment. Keep up the excellent work!
