I like the simplicity of this shot. The off-balance white space and half-portrait make it simple and complicated. Cool. Steve Joven

I've come back to this several times before commenting, and, errr, it's very good and I like it. What more can I say?

Scott: Strong. I am stopped in-tracks by compositions like this, as they grab your attention but also invite some extrapolation/interpretation. One possible improvement, a technique I use often: Sharpen just the iris/pupil quite a bit more. Will give it a more penetrating look. I do this on many of my portraits to gives them more grab. I have a couple of techniques, so email me if you like. Justa thought. But strong as is; this is one of my favorites so far. --Joe

Great idea Scott, love the white on white with the eye providing the colour. Very Nice. Vikas
