this is a picture that I took recently of my sister (I did her senior pic's). I would appreciate an feedback before I send it to the printer. She loves this photo but her mother hates it... imagine that. #651815

I really like the one where her eyes are more closed. The one with her eyes open is nice too, but seems a little too intense and it looks like you can see her breath on the reflective surface. Both are nice photographs… nice work! #4261421

I vote for eyes closed. I have seen quite a few photographers try this type of pose with the model staring into space. To me, it looks like a crime scene photo. The eyes closed gives more of a dreamy or in deep thought feeling. #4261449

I like the one with eyes partly closed also. She looks like she is dreaming of something or someone. #4265111

I agree with the crime scene comment... the one with the eyes closed is much softer! #4273057

I vote with the others. The closed eye image is far more intriguing. Just what is she thinking about? #4273138
