Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes goes - ah

When she walks, shes like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes goes - ooh

Ooo but I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes I would give my heart gladly
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall,and tan,and young,and lovely
The girl from ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile - but she doesnt see.
she just doesnt see, she never sees me...

This is Anjali, who was just not willing to face camera but somehow I managed to convince her.Hope you all like this!

Have a great weekend!
Cheers,
Shubhi:)

although I do not very well understand the technicalities of a portrait therefore most of the portrait in my gallery are substandard it does not mean the remaining post are outstanding those are just average as I am a learner.But the thing which attracted me is the soft lower and the shine in the eyes of your model.Its very unique full of life and hope.the sepia effect is giving it a classic look.Good luck

Shubhi

Hi Dear Shubhi
Another nice use of soft focus in this speia portrait
Anjali has a lovely face and made a great pose for your camera
Its time to upgrade your camera from point and shot to a DSLR!
Regards, Alireza

She's beautiful, and I really like the warmth of her expression. Tell her Rew says she should model for you again.

Nicely composed image, the pose flows well through the frame and the depth of field is very well managed.
