    Re: Cori

    Hmmm. This one is a little iffy for me. I love this concept, yet I think the pillow or couch is just blocking her either eye just a little too much. Even if you had another inch to see her eye, I believe it would be alot more effective. Love the black and white work though in your last posts, very nice.

    Re: Cori

    i agree with teh comment below. i love the emotion and softness behind it - just a little too much of the pillow blocking her eye. a very nice black and white.

    Yeah I agree it's not enough of her face really, but it was just a grab shot anyway. She wouldn't have given me anytime to get a better angel. LOL I had to be CAT fast to get even this!

    Thanks guys!

    This one is really interesting because I keep wanting to see the rest of her face. Very effective.

    Almo!!
    Great idea, but as the others may have stated, the left eye being covered, dampens the effect of the shot. In portraiture, eyes are the most important part! Never cover them, and make sure her glasses don't take away from those nice eyes you've won for yourself there.
