Wow, the is really arresting. The eyes and expression are very compelling -- even a little disturbing.

I like the way the shape of the person in the background compliments that person in the foreground too.

The blownout section in the background is a little distracting but a nice image.

Speaks volumes. Eye contact strong because the person behind is 'just not seeing it'.
I like the fact the the other figure is a little out of focus, it gives more strength to the formost figure.

Very nice image, nothing to critisize, just why is there a black bar on the left edge?

Really good shot !! The face of the woman is really expressive, and the DOC is perfect.

I meaned DOF (Deap Of Field)...

I love this shot. I think it is that much stronger with the man in the background than him cropped out. It tells such a story. Great.

I like it. But I would like the man mor out of focus, because it will help to get the focus stronger on her. And , really, the black bar disturbes a little.

Thanks All !
prometheus - the lens is f/2.8 so i couldn't do any more DOF
The bar is the original frame of the medium format camera.

Nice work - I agree with most of the comments above - the tonal range is good - I think perhaps it could be darkened overall a tad.

A pleasure to view

Ok i must say nice work!!! Nice shot! I think this one must be featurd!

Very nice antique feel here. My only suggestion is that the contrast is just the slightest bit flat. Other than that, great shot.

This is gallery material. I can't think of a higher compliment. Beautiful, humanistic, and tells a thousand tales. This is right up there with all the very best that portraiture has to offer.

great! everything. sharpness on spot. expression is great. composition as well. and it tells a story.
