A serious young lady and a future gourmet, for sure. Her eyes were captured precisely and her tousled hair tack sharp. The stone against her young face produce a interesting tension. The Image is superb. One of your most fascinating captures . Tony

Tony's right, Maria: a most compelling portrait and one of your very best. I'd be tempted to try a square "dead centre" crop, I'm not sure about the current framing.

Actually there's not enough room on the right (I've just checked) unless the original has more of her left shoulder...
Best wishes,

Andrew

Expression makes this a superb result. Thankyou for choosing black and white too. Capturing 'that' moment is King....well actually in your case Queen. Beautiful addition to your portfolio of excellence.

Brick walls don't normally make the best of backgrounds but it really suits this shot! Nice one Maria!
