Cosy pose and raw background - it's contrast! I like compo of this photo and long shadow + pose and background - all together. Well done

Hello Eleen,

this is a very good photo. The composition background, underground and the shadows was a good choice. Greate work!!

Thank you for the datailed note.

my only nitpick would be that the DOf is not quite correct, as you are dressed almost in the same colours as the wall:)
But the mnood is very good.
Good portrait of you!

Welcome back, Miss Eleen ! Good to see you here again, with a beautiful picture and your thoughts. I guess a lot of photographers feel the same way (otherwise this place would be full of selfportraits).

Hope all is well with you,
Marleen

Hi Eleen
This is really nice! Light, colour and shadows are great - congratulations to your friend! Haha.
But congratulations to you as well for a beautiful pose, vulnerable but open, and a great location. (If it was me, I'd have made you take off the wristwatch.)

Good to see you again, Eleen, and I hope we will see you more often in the coming weeks. Very nice portrait of you taken by your friend, maybe a little too centered but the pose is relaxed & comfortable. Nice light in this old building with the nice texture of the wall behind you. Your face could probably be a little sharper but that is a minor detail in an otherwise nice picture. Well done and welcome back!

This is an artistic portrait.Good lighting and a reflector on left side would be a difference.

Well I finally see a little more of you Eleen. I like your photograph. You made good use of the almost horizontal light and the texture on the back wall. If not for your shadow, I would say this photo is better if done in a square format.
Let us have more from you.

Regards,

Hi Eleen, good to see you posting again. old friends never really forget each other so here i am taking a peek on your new photos. and this i like most because you're the subject and the expression seemingly projects a pensive mood. i always like reading your notes and i just wish all people here would make informative and narrative notes like you do.

cheers,
Ron

Hi Eleen, I don't think any of us have forgotten you. I did see a lot of your photos till you graduate then see some of the shots of you from "Ah Thong" site... is great to see you finally have sometime to come back and pay a visit. A nice shot of you, but it seem to me you are full of sadness and so much thinking in this shot.

I like this shot... nice lighting and colours. Well done, thanks for sharing,

Cheers,
Sweety

Hi Eleen,
this is a great shot,
good exposure & lighting,
I can imagine when studies/work (work in my case) deprives you of your freedom,
great post to portray that :)
As for the 'camera note' I feel the same :P

I think this is simply beautiful, both the shot, it's wonderful composition aided by the long shadow at your back, and the beautiful tone of your skin and delicate features.

Thanks so for posting this wonderful view of a who I know to be a wonderful friend. "

Hi Eleen, Tell your friend what a great job they did. I too feel more in control behind the camera and I hate having it pointed in my direction.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts :-) Lesley
