wanted to look at the viewfinder but she looked too furious. so i tried a candid shot from my waste level.

Post processing: cropped slightly at the bottom, converted to black and white using channel mixer using mostly the red channel to simulate the effect of a red filter. applied unsharp mask 2 pixels at 50%.

PS. she was not mad at me!

hi Kourosh, this is just great, I really like this picture. Interesting accidental composition, interesting cropping, good B&W. maybe I'd change the frame, but I am not sure what frame would be more appropriate here - but the frame is not very important...
and the content? Emotions...
I'll add it to my favorites.

Great catch. Wonderful composition although it was not planned.

This could be made into a film poster of sorts...the expression is priceless. I like your PS work as well (wonderful tones you generated with this B&W conversion). Nothin to nit pick here. Very original and powerful work. Well done.

This is very good Kourosh. I like the tight framing and the noise. Excellent work!

Wonderful diagonal, I like you chose it to leave it blurry & softy, it's more dynamic like a primal scream.
Perhaps some whiter parts in the eye area would improve this already excellent shot.

(PS : not mad at you? I wouldn't like to see her really MAD at you...)

great :) I love candid shots..and isn't it great when you see the picture later to find out it has a touch of the soul in it too..very good crop and very strong picture...

very good...

Good tight crop. In composition the mouth is dominating. Second point of interest is eye. They complement each other and being on diagonal makes the photo more expressing as wrinkles too. Excellent work!
