Like the overall comp and direct eye contact. Quite charming and expressive. Grainyness certainly adds to the photo. -Cat

It was originally a little noisy when converted to B&W so I went with it and added a little more in PP. Judi

I like the grainy effect too. Was this just noise, or did you add grain in PP?

Judi I really like this, love the eyes looking over the camera; great capture. I also like the grain, gives it a 'stippled matt paper print' look (... er...I think I know what I mean?) Well done! ~ Regards... Bob

Thanks aam1234. Olaf, I was playing with different settings and I liked this the best. Judi

Excercising your abilities to hold still, or why the odd exposure of 1/2s at f/14 and ISO800? I know AJ often shot at the highest ISO of her D60 to get 'grain' in her pictures...

Good point Traveller, it is distracting but don't have access to Photoshop, am abroad and not at my own computer, will see what I can do, thanks for commenting, regards Judi.

Intense Eye Contact...nicely done, but somehow I wish that the Canon spelling could be removed or turned around. Always on your side. Best Wishes, Traveller
