In the eyes, a photo from Xinjiang, West

Photographer's Note

Amongst all the hustle and bustle of Kashgar's famous Sunday livestock market I came across this young girl.

Hello Chris!
A very touching portrait - the expression on her face is so serious and unexpected in a child, as they are always smiling.
Good composition and very natural (like a photo should be and not over-processed)
Congratulations!

Hello Chris,
What a delightful portrait ! I love the close cropping on this image, as well as the vibrant colours and perfect timing of your photo. You have captured her expression so nicely and shown her beautiful skin in all its naturalness. A great quality image. Really beautiful.
Have a nice sunday.

Hello Chris - This is a lovely portrait. The tilt of the head is charming and the headscarf tied low across the eyebrows really helps to emphasise the deep brown eyes. Your focus is perfect with your DOF throwing the background into an unobtrusive element of the shot. Very fine shot with great appeal. Warm regards rosemary

Great sharpness here, Chris. The skin, you can almost feel it. I also like the reflections/mirror in her eyes. Hidden self portrait?

Thumbs up from me for this one & cheers.
