Truly inspired!
Very good work, that large-aperture setting is the key to the DOF, and you've done well picking up on the PP techniques that make this kind of portrait so good. Excellent work.

Hi John,
Stunning portrait. Her eyes are lovely. Reminds me of the search by National Geographic for the Afghan girl! Great composition, nice sharpness and depth.

Like always also the photo developed, it pleases me very well. The photo is very aesthetic. Eyes and hands are the substantial picture elements. Greetings, Wolfgang

Excellent shot. She really does have beautiful eyes.

Hi John
This is an excellent portrait. The light is beautifully balanced and the reflections in the eyes are like marbles. The tight, off center cropping is beautiful too as it balances the composition. The detail and skin tones match the colour of the headscarf perfectly. Well done indeed.

It is an amazing one. The eyes are so bright compared to others neutral colors. She has also beautiful hands and the position of the hand is great.
