first portrait

[codenull]

this was my first attempt at a portrait, I did a little bit of editing to remove a few blemishes, other than that, it is straight from the camera in raw format.

What's your focus in the shot? It feels very cluttered/not a strong focus.

Good try, keep shooting, but keep in mind what you are focusing on when you decide to crop(before even taking the shot). Like her hand is doing something on the left and its drawing my eye, but then it's cut off.

Hope that was somewhat helpful, in my hours that I'm trying to procrastinate before my final. :)

Good start to build off of though.
