I like the muted tones in this shot. I also like the feeling of you hiding something about yourself by using your sweater as a barrier.

Nicely done - I think with this theme sometimes what's not shown adds to the overall impact - somehow it suggests a 'mood' for the image and I think that's what makes this shot so interesting ... the 'mystery' behind it....

You show just enough of yourself to make us think of what's behind the clothing!

I must say... gorgeous. I dig the long scarf, and how the further eye is just barely peeking over. Yay for freckles. =)

Lovely :)

George said 839 days ago:

This has impact. I like the texture and lines of the sweater against your face. And your eyes are captivating. It seems like there's a bit too much black space above your head...perhaps more definition in your hair would help. Also, since your eyes are so captivating it'd be nice to see all of your right eye and a bit more of the left.

very compelling, love the contrast and tones.

simran said 833 days ago:

Kind of hot. Better without the blemishes.

lbstone said 833 days ago:

Blemishes? I'm pretty sure those are freckles and I love 'em.

They're my freckles :)
