I think I like this one of the two better.. Not to say there´s anything wrong in previous day´s picture! Both have stunning moody lighting. Well done!

I like the red glow on your face, wonderful.
Guest 20-Jun-2005 04:26
Orange or reddish light always add to a person's face :)
Gayle P. Clement20-Jun-2005 04:13
The light is perfect and she is quite beautiful.

i like this one better. :)

wonderful glow and emotive face.
Karen Leaf19-Jun-2005 04:30
I do like yesterday's better-the hidden light is/was so mysterious-sometimes less is more. Glad you showed both Chris, both images have great merit.
Gary Winters18-Jun-2005 21:50
Very serence, calm and peaceful image.
don nieman18-Jun-2005 13:06
Very soft and warm light on a beautiful face. Nice.
Guest 18-Jun-2005 11:28
Very nice!
Guest 18-Jun-2005 11:20
very nice picture ! looks like she smells the light...
Guest 18-Jun-2005 06:34
Wow im loving this!
Di18-Jun-2005 03:40
While both images are superb, I prefer yesterday's because the light source is hidden. Makes the image somehow more interesting. Have a wonderful weekend!
Guest 18-Jun-2005 03:39
this one is more expressive ;-)
excellent
Bryan Murahashi18-Jun-2005 03:28
Another great shot.

Not sure, either..vote
JeremyGood18-Jun-2005 02:01
Both are great, I think I like this one a bit better.

Hmmmm, this is beautiful, but I believe I like the other better, as well. This explains the light source, true, but I rather agree with northstar and I also think perhaps this pulls too much attention to the candle, and away from her face. I also like it better that you flipped the image....I actually saved it and opened in an editing program so I could look at it both ways and I think you made the right choice.

Beautiful, well done Chris.

I like the original as much or more than the crop. Excellent frame of reference to have the candle in the shot.
David Clunas17-Jun-2005 21:47
Very nice Chris, the tones and mood are fabulous
Guest 17-Jun-2005 21:41
I can't choose..I love both of them..vote

I like the one yesterday a bit better, you don't know the source of the light. Adds a bit of mystery.
northstar3717-Jun-2005 20:19
I like this one.
Costi Jacky 17-Jun-2005 19:49

Both are very beautiful (they also remind me of Georges de La Tour, of course, because of the light).
Wonderful portraits. Raffinés!
I voted!
This one is my favourite.
Adalberto Tiburzi17-Jun-2005 17:17
I do prefer this one.
Antonis Sarantos17-Jun-2005 17:01
I can't make up my mind which one is better and why should I? They are both super! Voted of course.
