This is Natalia- a friends daughter who is just full of expressions. This one she uses when being a little shy. I do not post many portraits and ask for your advice. I will also post a softer version in the workshop, which looks better ? Also, should I have cropped her fingers?

You are very right, indeed, she is full of expressions, Julie!
Very well detailed shot with great sharpness and a pleasing POV. The way she is looking into the camera, is just nice and bringing charm into the composition! However, the blue color brings nice contrast into the capture.
Very well seen!

thanks and regards,
Paras Bhalla

Hi Julie

Effective tight framing, with good sharpness around the eyes in this superb portrait of the blond haired girl. Tfs!

hello Julie
hope you are doing fine
interesting expressions captured
light and shadows made this tight crop moody and interesting
nice exposure and fine colours
sharp and well focused
good crops

regards
Manuj Mehta

Hi, Julie -
I don't post many portraits, either, so I'm not qualified to give you advice, but I really like this image. You managed the bright sunlight well, and the colors are excellent - the light blue shirt with her eyes and hair are a great combination. Charming subject with a delightful expression. The image is nicely cropped and intimately close with nice sharpness. If there is one thing I might do it would possibly be to try to remove that stray strand of hair from across her eye, although it's very inconsequential. Nice work!

Very nice tight crop Julie! I like the natural expression! Her tan skin and blue shirt go well together! I'm kinda mixed on the fingers, maybe even tighter would work, maybe a vignetting, to minimize the fingers and add focus to the face would work nice!

PS, for a period not know how long I will not place new pictures, if you want to know why read my introduction:)

Julie this is a lovely portait the expression on Natalia face shes not one for posing you have captured it excellently tfs

Hello Julie,
I think, both of versions are good. But you should have not cropped her fingers because they are important parts of body language

Hola Julie

maravillosa expresión wow wow guapa modelo

Hi Julie,

What a cute expression! I like the original over the softened version. Just personal preference I guess, but I like the natural look more. I think it would be better to crop her fingers though.

Nice job with the close crop and I like the way you've used the natural lighting.

Warm regards,
Werner
