Bali Magic #4, a photo from Bali, Nusa Tenggara

Photographer's Note

Sorry for passport shot, but I cannot forget her serious eyes. Just for reference I used "reflection plate" to enhnace her eye catch light, I am afraid but a little too strong --.

Ciao Takero
ho visitato la tua gallery e ho avuto modo di notare che è costituita in gran parte da ritratti, tutti belli per i soggetti ripresi e per l'ottima tecnica da te usata.
Anche questa bambina dell'Isola di Bali compisce per la sua bella espressione, mentre la tua tecnica completa l'opera con una nitidezza perfetta (grazie ad una messa a fuoco selettiva) che si unisce ad una giusta illuminazione che esalta il soggetto.
In conclusione un ritratto perfetto che unito a quelli messi in rete in precedente va a formare una documentazione ricca di valori.
Ciao e buona giornata
Romano

not only the color management has so greatly been made here, but those amazing eyes on that beautiful face is admirable.

Beautiful portrait, Takero, despite your qualifiers here. The backlighting actually has a nice effect, giving her a quiet sense, as though she's hiding in the shadows a bit despite her festive headwear. And of course you are right about her big, deep eyes. Lovely - thanks!

Hi ;)
This is a nice portrait ;)
I like the beautiful crown she is wearing ;)
I find her a little sad though (she was impressed right ?)
Nice work ;)
Cheers

Hi Takero,
For me Bali is the most magical place on earth, it was love at first sight. The Balinese women are so beautiful and graceful you can't take your eyes off of them. She's just a little girl but there's so much in her stare, I think it's a very touching portrait despite being a bit "passport"-looking as you say. I do like it.
Thanks and best wishes
Marina

Dear Takero,
A lovely portrait, the focus and bokeh are just right, and great colour. My partner told me the people of Bali are warm and beautiful.
Cheers

Maybe a passport photo, but an endearing one!
Her eyes are compelling the bokeh splendid!

Hi Takero,
anoteher good portrait, the light is very well managed on the face with perfect brightness for the eyes, well done, tfs.

Noel_Byrne (7209) 2013-02-04 9:41

Hi Takero,
I am not familiar with reflection plate, but whatever you did, it has worked perfectly well, those eyes are incredible. They appear a little sad, or mournful, and show great emotion. The girl looks a lot younger than her eyes portray. Beautiful portrait.
All the best
Noel

Hello Tekero,
Terrific portrait. The girl's eyes are beautiful. The tight crop strenghtens the splendid sharpness of this young girl. Splendid image.
