NIce portrait Sid. I might lighte the eye just a little but good as is.

[Jim Poor]

Awesome. I really enjoy the dark BG in images like this. Agree on the lightening of the eye just a touch.

[Grady Weed]

Take a bow Sid. And hang this one in a museum!

I normally don't like images that have all the light from flash, but you did very well with this Sid. Agree about the eye.

Hi Sid,

This is very interesting. You did an excellent job with the flash exposure on this one. The composition works very well.
