    I like this. Maybe the framing could be tweaked a bit, so that the top of her head isn't cut off in such an odd way, but I like how her head follows the slant of the bricks and her eyes are coming across just beautifully. The jacket is rich but the skin tone looks true.

    I was just about to type up exactly the same thing when D saved me the trouble. Thanks D! I agree with you. I would like this a lot more if her head was all there.

    Well maybe it is a personality thing veggie, but i love taking them from the top too, except i do it a little differently....
    In my gallery is one such image of a friend eating...needs fixing...but...

    As for this image, nothing more to add except maybe try to come closer and add some body in the shot, would increase the distortion....

    Fun shot...I like it!

    It's a good way to get a simpler background in a busy setting as well as being different from the masses. No double chins that way either.

    Nice work, I'll bet she's pleased with the shot.
