June 17, 2005

Great capture. I love how the subject is placed (rule of thirds), also, you have given her "room to look". I am so interested in knowing what she is seeing.
And the clean, simple background is so pleasing. #1482639

Susana Ms Heide June 17, 2005

Thank you Judges for commenting on this photo! This new aspect of BP is VERY helpful!! #1483536

June 20, 2005

I looked at both this color version and black and white version of the photo and I love them both. (During this round of juding the photos showed up together.) I finally decided on the black and white one because the simplicity of color (or lack thereof) completely draws my eye to her sweet face, and is not distracted by the colors of the building around her. It was a tough choice - lovely work! #1494467

Mary-Ella Bowles June 29, 2005

I agree with the Judges - and everyone else!! This is such a sweet portrait - truly special. I've enjoyed my stroll through your gallery. You have some outstanding and very appealing work here. Well done, Susana! #1536766

Susana Ms Heide August 04, 2005

Thank you Janice for your opinion! Personally I am really torn between the color and b&w version. I'm not sure which one I like best. But I did get the color version enlarged for myself :o) #1678865
