this is amazing – how can a half a shot say soooo much? well it does – and from the nails to the eyeliner – to the bit of hairline this shot speaks so much! enjoyed it much.
Creative cropping is a much ignored part of photography. Finding the photo within the photo (for lack of a better term) is an art form on its own. Your crop on this photo is top-notch… Love it!
A fun and different take on a portrait. Love the eyes under hat – and the colours of the hat itself along with the painted finger nails. Very nice, Lynne.
Thanks Otto..Different for me that’s for sure.. Spending the summer practicing head shots then next move on to full portraits.
Trying to capture the not so ordinary angles 🙂

Thank you so much.. I liked this shot better than the full face one wearing the hat.. Sometimes less is more 😉
