Salut La belle!
Tu est rentré du Senegal et pas avec n'importe quoi! C'est magnifique Sylvie, bravo tots mes compliments.
Amicalement Steph.

hi sylvie,

what a beautiful portrait. converted in black and white and just a part of her face and shoulder. just little remark, add a very fine black line around the picture before you add the white frame. it is my preference but may be not yours.
using photoshop a piece of cake, go to canvas and add .02 mm on all sides. that's it.

perfect picture, no doubt at all, regards frans
ps could do it for you if you like

hi Sylvie,
nice graphical effect and great focus - the white background is very effective.

Well done and have a great weekend.
Regards, Daniel

Saluti Sylvie, merci pour partager ce gran portrait, j'aime bien l'effet de blanc et noire...
Amitiés.

Hey there!
It's all perfect, this photo! Nothing to even comment on.
The pose, the crop, the BW, the background (or side, rather). Everything just works perfect to create a special effect, so filled with real feelings on a real human expression.
The first one in the series that shows the face of the person. The last two didn't show the face, yet we could almost see them.
I'm blabbering on now, but it's really a perfect photo!
Nuné

Perfect details and clarity. Wonderful POV, and lighting. It has a nice mood also, for some reason. Probably the lighting.
Great job!
Thanks for sharing Sylvie,
Leanne

¡Hola Sylvie!
Me encanta, me encanta. La forma en la que has tomado este fotografía es excelente. La poderosa mirada de ella se escapa del encuadre y se une al corazón de quien la mira.
Un abrazo

What a beauty ... both the lady and the portrait.
Perfect composition and lighting. Her character shines through ... her dignity is tremendous.
Salil

hi sylvie!

this is a splendid portrait :)

i love the crop, and more importantly, the expression on the woman's face which you so rightly captured :)

congrats!

Bonsoir Sylvie!

Après les vacances, c'est le retour au travail ! Et comme toi un retour sur TL. Tranquillement, car il y a tant de choses à faire à notre retour. je constate que toi aussi tu as eu beaucoup de plaisir et d'émotions à renouer contact avec tes amis sénégalais.

Ici, j'aime particulièrement ce portrait tout simple. Une très belle composition et un bel angle de vue! Un regard et une expression toute naturelle. Le WS de Frans ajoute encore plus de finesse à ton portrait.
Bravo !
Robert

une portrait magnifique
le cadrage est absolument parfait et le choix du n&b est excellent.

BRAVO
