looking ahead

rosey cheeks. what a doll :)
looking ahead by mynikin.
Why does your opinion of a shot immediately change as soon as it's been uploaded to flickr??
I owe many emails to many people... but nobody is getting one for a long time cause I'll be out of town - far, far away.

Lovely pastel tones. Interesting choice of focal plane on the hair rather than your face. Combined with the framing it gives a sense of distance and detachment from the moment of the shot.

Have a great time in far, far away lands. May your adventures be grand.

Packing? Blah!
I'm moving house in two weeks -- don't talk to me about packing! I'm on the endless mover's quest for ever more cardboard boxes this week.

In my barely awake haze, I asked myself "What is a picture of Vanessa Marcel doing on my flickr contacts list?"

Interesting with the focus on the hair and the slight bit of face we can see in the frame. Gives it a certain annoymity and appeal.

this is beautiful. i love the softness. it makes it less harsh and sad, there is movement in it like it was caught in the middle of something. great shot.
