    the look

    Playing around with getting in *really* close. This is another shot of Candace (the fur girl) and I'm wondering if the depth of field helps or hurts this one...

    Re: the look

    The dof works well for me. It probably would be alright with more dof as well, but this works.
    Looks great. Only minor suggestion i have would be crop slightly from the bottom and the left side. I am not crazy about seeing the crease forming from her cheek and nose and the slight yellow color of that area and the left side will look better just a tad tighter in.
    This is a great piece, Jet

    Re: the look

    Beautiful and the DOF works well for me. I agree with Gary about a bottom crop and might add that I think that gorgeous eye may benefit from a reduction in the size of the catch light. I seems to be a little distraction to me. Very nice image!
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Re: the look

    Dof works for me and beautiful eyes.
    I didn't notice at first but once I did, I am really distracted by the flecks of stuff in her lower eyelash.
    Keep Shooting!

    Re: the look

    Legit. I think I agree about the cropping, though.

    What camera did you use?
