Aside from a re-size, this is straight out of the camera. I'd like to know what you think and how the picture can be improved.

Thanks

I PLEAD DA FIF!

These up the nose shots hardly ever work and this one, in my view is no exception. You also don't have enough fill as her eyes are almost in the dark. Also I don't care for the cropping with the arm just barely visible at the top. Well, you did ask.

First, I like the idea behind the image. But, if I am to be honest, the image is basically flat from a lighting standpoint, and there isn't really a focal point. My suggestions to improve the shot would be to add some addtional lighting to give the image some depth and to open up the deep shadow under the bring of the cap. Yes, you can still have a shadow, but the eyes don't show at all now. That would be fine if the rest of the face was brighter and some accent lighting were used to create depth.

I have a similar image in idea to yours in my portfolio but unfortunately I don't have it in electronic format right now.

Which is was. Really! I deliberately had her push her hat onto her face to put her eyes in shadow, that's what her hand is doing.

Ok, so given that info, whatcha think?
