A strong image, but to be very picky I'd have liked the full eye rather then nicking the corner of it. Her eyes have a story to tell!

I don't know about that, Craig. I think it adds to this image's composition.
Pall, what is the age of this person?

Indeed, I agree on both counts. Fantastic image nonetheless!

I like this image as it is. Her powerful gaze holds your attention and I agree that her eyes have a story to tell. Now, when clicking on the image the larger version appears with, what I think, it is too much noise for my liking. I had myself had similar problems when I used too much sharpening in certain photos. That is why I believe this particular image is good an powerful as it is.

I don't know how I managed this, but I ended up with two identical postings. Hence, I changed one to this one to avoid being too repetitive and overcritical.

I still like the picture of the girl!

thanks everyone,thanks zafra yeah the sharpness got over i think,micro nikkor lens is very sharp than other lenses i used and i aplied same setting file as i uses for other images while processing NEF in N-capture.this one needs to be sharpen less.

Pall - those eyes are amazing.
Great capture - I wasn't sure about the composition, but the more I look at it, the more I think it works
