Outstanding portrait Paula! Jeff #549493Paula L. Mackey November 01, 2006
Thank you, Jeff! Beautiful models always are a benefit! #3531408Marcos Medina (M2PhotoArt) November 01, 2006
Excellent photograph, I like the softness and the the composition, but I think that the jewelry takes away from the central focus. We all know that photography is all subjective. #3531418Roger Bernabo November 01, 2006
Lovely lighting and image. the jewelry catches one's eye but if that is part of her then I think it belongs--- as M2Photoart said-- just an opinion #3531444Autum Rhoades November 01, 2006
Wow!!! Fantastic, Paula - those eyes just draw you right in and the lighting is terrific! I like the jewelry - seems to go with the title. GREAT!!! #3531533Paula L. Mackey November 01, 2006
M2PHOTOART, thanks for the feedback! I too believe it to be distracting, that is how it got it's title! She is a senior and wanted her "charms" to show, so... my hands were tied, so to speak!Paula L. Mackey November 01, 2006
Bless you, Autum, for you have blessed me! #3531595Paul Michko November 01, 2006
