Description

I had so much response on the B&W of this photo in last month's contest - and while many said they preferred the B&W, just as many said they preferred the color version. So, I figured I'd submit the colored version into this month's contest and see how they both do.

Kary,
This time I will try to be more objective. Ha!
Anyway your side lighting here I think is excellent accenting your face and yet giving the mystique in the shadows. your hair falling across your face is very sexy, well the whole thing is!!..but oh well its just hot!!!
Trying again...:), the slight smile is indeed "playful" and the vantage point of the camera is great. Did I mention it was hot?!?!
Best I can do.
