Solid shot.. I like how it caught that "wild" hair on the left side of your face.

Porky: 1st portrait post here, not 1st portrait. I'm playing with new lights and light boxes. Yes the image is cropped - 5x7" framing. I'm setup in my living room and the background is actually a 3' round popup reflector attached to my background stand (for some reason I've never bought simple black/white backgrounds).

Personally, I think the hotspot in the eyes is a bit harsh and ought to be toned down and the wild hair on the right (why are they always chroma challenged? LOL) ought to be cloned out, but thats just me.

Thanks for looking!
