Thanks for the thought provoking comment and I hear you. I think the whole thing is self-fulfilling; I'd love to take pictures of a much more representative sample of people, but not too many make themselves available for such work....

Who in Gods name gave this a 1?
in fact how anyone can rate this below a 5 is beyond my comprehension.
Well done mate, you are becoming quite the 'Ribbon Hog'.. Excellent top notch B&W portraiture.

Wow - you have taken full advantage of her beauty - The simplicity is representative of photography and humanity at their most splendid. The only thing I would prefer would be a lack of make-up but that's just me. ;)
