| I've always been a huge fan of this photo! I love the coloring, I love her eyes and I love the oh, so serious look on her face! This is actually the photo I studied the most when I was getting ready to do the portrait of my son for the natural light portrait challenge. I think the portrait I ended up entering for that challege is the exact opposite of this one in terms of expression, but I definitely got some of my inspiration from you! |

Probably one of the best portraits on the site. I thought I'd commented on it before...hmmm? Beautiful work.
Edited to add that I just viewed the Top 20 in the Challenge and I'm stunned that this didn't ribbon. By comparison it blew the shizzle out of every image before it except maybe the Blue.
Cheers!

| I added this to my favourites some time ago, but was so pleased to see it in a thread again. It really is incredible - beautiful, intense, technically excellent. |

| Awesome portrait. Great work (the processing shows a bit to the left of her head, in the form of reduced contrast, but it's not distracting). Beautiful results too with an inexpensive P&S. I mention that particularly, because I'm not surprised. I was eyeing the A620 over at DPReview--I was AMAZED at the quality of the samples. I am still considering one, though I'd love to find one just like it that had a wider short end. |

| This one really stood out to me during the challenge, and was among my highest votes. Your PP on this enhances the image beautifully, simply highlighting her lovely features without overdoing it. I love the look of vulnerability that you captured. Very nice job, and congratulations on your placement. (I would have had it on the front page, for sure.) |

She's a cutie, Jeff. You know that I have a soft feeling for red heads! Thanks again, for all the care in February. I hope to order a laptop in the next week or so and be able to get online more seriously again. The damned outstretched leg can't get me into the office usually.
Seriously, love this shot.

| fantastic eyes! have you done anything to them? and the hair, wonderful colors! the lighting is perfect indeed, maybe i would use some contrast color as background, pink as her skin maybe? or dark green as in her eyes? she is very beautiful! |

| Very good portrait, Jeff. No, wait a minute, that's excellent! It is much of encouragement to myself as I suck big time on portraits - and you did using the same camera as mine! Congratulations (on such a cute model as well)! |

Jeffrey,
Congrats on your awesome score, well deserved! I think you did a wonderful job with lighting and not over-processing this image. (I'm not a fan of that slick, waxy, death-by-processing look that some portrait take on.) I didn't vote but would have given you top marks on this. And congrats to the lovely little lady as well :-) |

I don't like the stray hairs, but it does add to the subject(Seriously Six). Great eyes and look. I want the background to be a different color. Maybe green or blue to contrast.
Nice shot! Good luck. |
