The eyes have it

Great subject- Her eyes are very mesmerizing, I also like how it's not very centered- 9

a strong face and an intriguing image - compelling eyes

beautiful...love the tone! those eyes are mesmorizing and the title is very fitting. powerful image.

The balance of light and dark is excellent, especially since they aren't in similar patterns-it breaks up the shot cleanly.

the bold border is a bit distracting...the crop you used is really nice...a good contrast with the very white background and the darkness of your model...very nice...good luck

What a great photo! Looks like some sepia toning used sparingly - if so, it's a great job - if not, it's a great capture. :) - 8

Love the piercing stare. My only comment would be personal: I think I would prefer this all in black back ground. But that is only my opinion. BOL

great focus on eyes.

This is very original and it really asks the audience to look closer. It's like the subject is calling you in. I love her expression - it's very serene. Good luck with this one. It's well balanced and a good composition - good lighting, etc.

Her face is in focus but the necklace not being in focus distracts me.

I don't get the title, but I like this shot. Her eyes! Awesome. I wish the light was on her face or less blown out on the right. She is lovely and interesting to look at. Good shot really.

The light on the models right shoulder is a bit much.
03/15/2004 06:50:02 AM
i am somewhat freaked out by how bright her eyes are!
03/15/2004 05:09:33 AM
Wow! Dramatic contrast with the face tones bang in the middle, very effective, nice compositional balance too.
03/15/2004 02:36:00 AM
Nice photo, but... it's a bit too dark for me

The very white glarey right side with the black left side does not appeal to me. The straight-on look of the subjec to the camera is not flattering. I like the tones of the shot.
