Excellent portrait work that captures great details through effective lighting AND her great expression. Her pose and smile are both inviting and powerful. Powerful, in that she is a woman who is confident in herself and knows how to assert her influence. She is not shy at all but will meet your stare with those eyes. Now I do wonder if the composition would have more visual impact if it was composed/cropped differently. I think the close crop is good for it bring us, the audience, closer to your subject. BUT, I wonder, how much more stronger would the audience connection be if you framed it such that you included her arms (the left elbow in the top left corner and the right elbow in the bottom right corner)? The position of the arms in the shot makes it possible and as such that would be another subtle way to frame her face. |
