the hairy eye ball

hello,

i am practicing my formal shooting. please also see the 2nd shot.

I prefer this one, actually. It seems more in the style of, say, Julia Margaret Cameron. In the second, there is just too little of her face showing. Here, at least you have the full contour and the chin. The exposure may be a bit better on #2 but I feel this is a stronger photo.

Cheers, Richard
