Not sure where the quote is from, can't remember.

This is one of my favorite portraits from the year that was. Her name is Amanda.

One strobe (sb-800) fired through umbrella directly overhead. If i did it over again, i might have reflected a bit of light from underneath, but i really like the mood the one light created in this image.

Not expecting much from this submission as I'm certain this challenge will be packed with stunning images.

I love this image and Im surprised to see it sitting next to mine. Thought it would have been right up there. Well done on a great image.

Beautiful soft light and expression. Love the close crop. I wish there was a hint more light on the eye. 10

Lovely dark portrait. The use of the lighting makes her features stand out better. Her eye pops out enough to create a mood and good job filling the frame!
