Absolutely right, Giulio - it's a wonderfully mysterious look !

A charming shot. Meg's looking older...
Best wishes,

Stunningly natural and warm (even in black and white). Meg is turning into a beautiful young woman and you are capturing this perfectly.

I do like this but I may have not posed her straight on (it looks like her feet are pointed towards the camera) maybe turning the shoulders away and the head back to you, this would also help give more of a shadow to the left side of her face for a more dramatic shot. Just my thoughts hope it made sense!

I did a few Daniel, i know exactly what you mean, trying to pick out the best is the problem, the side views weren't as focussed on the eyes as this one and her mouth wasn't quite right in some so i settled for this one, thank you for your comment though.

Lovely capture of an attractive young lady. And the conversion is really fine. I'm not sure in the lighting. I think I have to agree with Daniel regarding the lights and pose.
I loved to use my Tamron 70-300 lens for portrait shots that's a really versatile, useful lens.
