 I took several more traditional shots of my daughter, and they turned out pleasant enough. However, they looked a bit like tired high school senior yearbook shots. So, we moved in the fan and had some fun.

Gorgeous portrait; composition and light are terrific. Only nit pick would be that I would like to see a little more of the eye that is covered and the crop seems a bit tight. Still a top three image for me.

Lovely shot, but I would prefer if there was more iris and less pupil.

Great shot. That dilated eye is mesmerising. You are permitted to clone out stray hairs over the face you know ;)

Beautiful veil. I love the exposed eye. Just not a fan of how over sharpening makes the skin look
