Description

Sometimes I take a photo and say, "This is a great shot," but after I study it a bit it doesn't seem so great. Usually it's because I can't quite figure out what the viewer's eye should be drawn to. In this case the model's face, breasts and hand were all attracting my eye. I knew there was a good picture in there somewhere, but where was it? Hmmmm, maybe the hand and face could balance each other. I cropped accordingly and added in my trademark soft focus. Hope you like it. (Thank you photoshop!)

Ah, yes, the cropping tool has saved many a would-be masterpiece; good one, bud!

Excellent image, for me I am first drawn to her chest (probably the brightness) then her hand (following the bold line) then to her face.

I think you're right about less being more. This shot is beautifully composed/cropped and the lighting and colors are great, plus her eyes are almost hypnotic. The only problem I have is that I think the focus is a little too soft, although the effect is to make it look like a painting, which is kinda cool. Cheers.
