		from lorne1/Lorne (9,643) on October 3, 2011 9:18:11 AM CDT (2) Yuri...a good portrait that has intimacy and a feeling of connection with your subject. I think the tight crop is well done. Her skin tones look lovely. I might recommend lowering slightly the jacket by the corner of her and cropping out the partial earring on her right ear. Also her fisted left hand looks somewhat tense. These however are minor issues as this is really a fine portrait; one that invites the viewer in. Well done. Reply  Show ratings
		from jroessler/John (14,282) on October 3, 2011 8:41:11 AM CDT (2) Anna - again. Very good exposure - texture in her black jacket. Opinion - I think her eyeballs could be whitened just the smallest bit, and perhaps her teeth. Wearing the colored scarf again and it does add some needed color to the image especially as the subjects skin is so fair. Excellent job of focusing attention on the eyes. There is the slightest hint of blue at her temple. Some people object to this in a portrait, personally if that is an accurate representation of her skin it should remain. There are a couple of fly away hairs in the upper right hand corner - not really a problem - just noting. Under her eyes there is a very mild darkness. To reduce or not? Hmmm. All in all a very good portrait and I think I prefer this one to the previous because it seems more intimate. Reply  Show ratings
