Thanks for looking,,

Speak no evil huh!

I like it.. although I'd crop a little from the top (to the eyebrows I think)..to balance it out... great lighting!

not sure what the mood you were going for, but personally feel that the lighting and treatment doesn't work well with the expression on her face. Something like this, should be more high key and fun with the hand covering the mouth.

Also the composition is a bit tight on her that you've cut off her hand. Try going for the full face.

I think a more solemn pose would be more appropriate to reflect and relate to the treatment and lighting you've gone for.

Thanks for the useful comments guys.

Wayne, the image was not supposed to convey fun, but more of a surprise or distress. I guess it's how you interpret the image.

Cheers

Certainly looks to be shocked/surprised... Just something not right...maybe it's the feel you are trying to get anyways..

hi alex

love the tone nicely desaturated

although i think for a convinceing silence theme there has to be more intensity in the expression
it looks like shes slightly surprised and the hand casually placed in front of her lips it doesnt look like ascene where shes hurredly silenced
but this could of been your original intention

how's the family?

Hi Wendell,

Thanks for the useful comments. I agree, I think the expression needs more intensity. I will continue with this...

The family is doing well, thanks. Hope all is well with you.

Cheers
Alex
