    Re: Portrait strong eyes

    I like composition, including the entire knee curve at the top of the photo works very well.

    My only critique and it's a personal one, I just don't like inverted eyes. The upside down eyes are ok to look at at first glance but prolonged viewing and they become a tad weirder for me.

    I agree with Lee. I think you whitened the white of her eyes too much, that is the only negative thing I can think of. If you put her eyes back to the natural look it will look good.
    Ah, there is also too much yellow in her skin tone.

    The eyes grab me so hard, I hardly notice anything past her head.
    I don't mind them being upside down for exactly the same reason that Leels doesn't like them...go figure
    Keep Shooting!

    Hola Fernando

    the white of the eyes is too much, it looks artificially bright
    the reflection on her pupils is darker

    Welcome to PR , it is a great community
