good choice of dim light!

This is gorgeous. I love the soft lighting and how 'transparent' or white the entire piece seems without being over-exposed.

I'm normally quite fond of square crops, but in this piece, it really doesn't make or break it so much. To be honest, at first, I didn't see the squareness, it seemed portrait more than anything due to the details, which is a nice illusion.

I also didn't notice the cigarette at first, but now that I do, I think some sort of smoke in the photo would add to the significance of the piece all together.

Over all, the entire photo is quite lovely. It's an interesting piece of something quite simple. The anonymity of the girl is quite appealing as well. Gorgeous work!

wow, thank you for the big comment. at first i thought you were angry for some reason :)
i don't like square crops, either, but i do my photography with feeling, and i felt that this should be like that. I guess someone can see it as an illusion, yes. well, about the smoke, i don't smoke. so that's why there is no smoke in the image :P
thank you so much for your nice comment! :hug:

:rofl: no, no anger =P
I guess, now that I think about it, I do like square crops, but it has to fit the piece, because I've suggested it quite a few times on other pieces as well as my own :O.

As for the smoke, you could have maybe just lit it? or used an in-scents to make the illusion? But regardless, even without, it's still lovely :aww:

and you're welcome :huggle:
