 Title is from a line in the Hunters & Collectors song "Do you see what I see" I've had this song in my head for the last week and it's driving me nuts, I can't get it out.

Not sure if I even like this shot, looks like I've nodded off instead of deep in thought, but what the hey, I need portrait practice and I need more than two pics in the top row of my profile (2 is bad feng shui) : )

Not a lot of editing, did some levels curves a little spot editing to remove a small shadow on the wall and a few spots
and desat the reds and yellows. oh and USM. I think thats about it...

Shadow and light adds to the landscape orientation to create a pensive portrait.

I like the lightfall, though the photo seems to tend to black quite fast, therefore giving texture to only a small part of the sweater.

This is avant garde. Looks like a book cover. I love the use of shadow and the negative space to the left. The diagonal lines of the blind's shadow is cool. 7

I like the contrast, lighting and pose. However, I am not sure what the Landscape format gives you but dead space...
