    One More Portrait - Holga...

    Until I get some new stuff shot, this will be the last one from my current batch that I will post.
    It is another co-worker/friend. I wanted to show a little bit of the soldier and the person that she is at the same.
    What are your thoughts on this one?

    I like this one the best of what I seen. It looks very purposeful and completely accomplishes the idea of a person outside of the military and the soldier.
    Your others had a some sort of distraction or weird tilt that took away from the photo. This looks very well thought out and composed much more meticulously.
    I'm always mentally photographing everything as practice.

    Agreed, this looks very well thought out and planned and I like the contrast of the two images. Am just wondering if perhaps the right hand image is maybe lacking something of the person in it as all I can really see is the soldier.

    I like.

    Brian,

    This is the best so far. and I like the fact that you took a different composition rather than have exactly the same in both.
