| This is stunning. Love the DoF, the natural lighting, and the composition. Perfect catchlights. Unusual for a simple portrait to stand out in a FS filled with awesome images (in my book anyway). You've nailed it. Well done. |

| Beautiful model and image. Great focus on the eyes. Rest is a bit more soft than I'd like, but it works well all together. |

She rested her head on the back of the swing chair, and gazed into his face as he watched life's busy passing in the cul-de-sac. The little qwirk of a smile as the neighbor kids chased each other from yard to yard. The contemplative look that passed his eyes as Mr. Wilson brought his lawn-mower out of the garage, perhaps he was reminded that his own yard needed mowing? The subtle roll of his eyes as Old Mrs. Catchall came out on her step to get her paper in that flimsy see-through nightgown of hers, always good for a morning chuckle.
Most of all she studied his quiet contentment as watched the world go by on this lovely day. They were still so young, married only a few months prior, and she was still so full of love and awe for him. Still so happy to just watch him watch the world.
He looked over and saw her gaze, and smiled deeply, the light glinting his eyes. "Love you babe." Almost a whisper, as he leaned in and grazed her forehead in a soft kiss. Then, hefting his coffee mug, he stood and stretched. Then he took her hand and helped her out of the swing-chair, and they began another day at the beginning of a new life together. |

One of the best portraits I've seen in either of this months FS challenges. Eyes aren't over-sharpened, the skin has a nice natural look and the eyebrows aren't all mushed up from crappy smoothing techniques.
Very well done. |
