This is the best portraiture I have ever seen. The depth and the color of the eyes lead the viewer to a world where whatever you see is BEAUTY.

I think most comments I'm inclined to make about your photograph. Can I make a further recommendation - that's to do with the composition - I believe her eyes are too near the top of the frame in a 'proportion sense' sense. Try losing some of the bottom of the frame, so the eyes get nearer to the thirds point. Your models eyes have impact now but cropping the bottom out seems to emphasise them even more - you try moving the image here down so there's only say half an inch below here chin above the bottom of the screen and you'll see what I make that recommendation

Blue D****by mirceab/Mircea Sea Widow
An Interesting effect. Instead of doing this shot totally Blue Mircea has managed to make it totally bluish without resorting to total tint. The light traversing the veil does the job enhancing even the eye color. This gives the take an outstanding balance of tonality maintaining the skin tones slightly untouched. This shot is a whisper in an Ocean of Deep Blue sailing towards a mysterious horizon in the Sailship of life searching memories of a lost lover like a Widow at Dawn unable to sleep. There is sadnes in those eyes and pouty lips. Loses and gains that's what life is all about sometimes. Shadows of Deep sorrows and wondering hope projected from that fix stare will keep our gazes guessing what the real true is. The Soul has unphatomable mysteries and secrets. The Portrait is also very Glamorous in nature, so much so, that it borders unintentionally in kitsch. Difficult balance indeed.

Wonderful capture with so much captivating about it! Clever use of shawl with complimenting color with the eyes. And the eyes! Great expression and intensity. I find a few distractions in this image and if you are not already aware am a firm believer in post editing. As beautiful as this is, I wouldnt hesitate to remove the loose hair under her bottom lip and tone down her lashes of her right eye. Skin tone although wonderful and glowing could benefit from a light soft focus to blend and smooth as are all images seen today commercially.Forgive me if I have stepped on toes here,because it is beautiful as is.
cheers
Arron

Mircea, this is a wonderful portrait. The veil worked very well in highlighting the lady's eyes. Thought that the technical aspects were very good. the composition was very good. Enjoyed this.

Hi Mircea,
Nice portrait. Color of the eyes, lips and the scarf makes this portrait different from the classical portrait photos. Congratulations.
Regards

Wow what beutiful eyes and a great mysterious shot. I love the compostition and cropping. It is a very classic shot. Is it just me or are the eyes a little out of focus. Great work.
