This photo reminded me Steve McCurry's great portrait of an Afganian Girl, shot in Peshawar, Pakistan in 1984, published in National Geographic..
Your model is of course too much westerner.. But both are emotional, impressive..
Congrats..

Hi Stu. Congratulations on gaining multiple awards for this excellent image. It has already been said but those eyes are so compelling. Terrific detail all over. I missed it when you first posted it as we were away on hols and I'm just starting to catch up a little. Once again, my heartiest congratulations.

The eyes are a key to the soul - or so they say. As i was shooting i instictively kept going to her eyes cos they were so expressive so i though i would focus solely on them by hiding the rest of her:) glad you like!

Stunning portrait.
She has the most wonderful blue eyes. The fact that you can only she her eyes. It makes this photograph very mysterious and sexy. Colors and details are very nice. I aslo like the skin tones although the forehead does show some highlights.

just a tease then for what we have in store for the future. nice way of presenting your model. the eyes that are a clue to her soul. you captured it very well. what is it that you wanted us to know of her, besides the alluring beauty of her eyes?

Dear S.D., Very nice shot (even though I'd have to say the eyes lean a bit more to the grey side) but that's just the title. Looked over your front page and i see you have some very nice work. Good job, Mark

Hya Mr. Holmes, There's something about this shot that is pure3 power. Not only those cool grey but formost piercing eyes, but also the (what I like to believe) hidden smile, betrayed by the eyes. Excellent capture, although perhaps a bit on the soft side of the scale. Superb tones, though.

Cheers,

Hugo
