I have been a little sad/lonely up in Cooperstown so this is something a little happier, i was shooting self portraits and my friend came walking up and this was caught as i greeted him. The sun was behind the trees and i had a reflector right by my face on the side

Wowsers!!!! (note the 4th exclamation point on my wowsers, that doesn't happen often!) I agree 100% with the previous comments. Your b/w is awesome, just great, great tones. Wonderful light. And an unorthodox composition that is just to die for. What an engaging sp. Lovely.

OK, I just wandered through your SP's, and without a doubt, this is my favorite.
Candid. Genuine feel. Happy. It all works.

I'm not quite sure there are words that describe how great this shot is. Unscripted, natural, and a small glimpse at real you could be just a start I suppose. Your black and white tones are wonderful not over done but add a 1930's nior feeling to this shot. As Art stated; you positively have an old school beauty about you that radiates in this shot so well.

Beautiful work Claire, stay with it.

I really like the expression. Great lighting and focus. Looking out of the frame adds some mystery to the image, 'what are you looking at?'

This is really cute. You are improving quite rapidly, it's very encouraging to see!

Happier is definitely better. :) You have an old-school beauty about you. Very lovely and lively.

Ah... this is really cute. I LOVE the expression! :-)

And technically, the b&w conversion is superb. Some could argue whether you should be looking into the frame or out of it. I think it looks fine just the way it is.
