Magnificent picture!! The texture/canvas look is superb and the coloring is perfectly suited!! A beautiful young child indeed:):)WOW! Just fantastic!!!

I just gave you full marks for this in the VB because it's very well done and decent portraits are a rarity here. I have one wish, which is that the effect hadn't been applied; I think the image is strong enough in its own right. That's a compliment, I hope ;-)

This is stunning!!

Like the expression on her face and the pose of her. And the lighting is perfect around her head even as the presentation as a painting:))

faves for me!!

I'm not High on Portraits but this One is an Eye Catcher for Sure.
Like the Textured Effect also.
Thanks for sharing this Beauty.

FaveD !

E J expressed just what I would say, nice shot and nice post work.

Lara is a beautiful subject, in both photos. This is a wonderful capture of her. The lighting, pose and details are excellent. The textures work well here, but I too would enjoy it just as much without. Exceptional work!

I've just given this delightful image full marks in the Voting Booth. Stunning portrait both with and without the texture. Congratulations on an outstanding capture.

This is perfect!!

Exquisite portrait. Your model is also wonderful!

what a wonderful portrait! good job!

This is one of the best 'people' images I have ever seen Nenad.
Your detail is incredible and Lara's eyes go straight to her beautiful spirit. The filter that you used adds an 'old' feeling to the image, not at all unpleasant.
This will reside in my favorites folder and many thanks for sharing this with me :o)

What a fabulous Olde World look to this portrait ! This is just breath-taking. And your B&W photo of Lara is just as gorgeous as well. Though I have to agree with Nigel, I wish you hadn't applied the texture either as I think the image could hold it's own. It's fabulous.

Very good portrait! Mich

Yes, it is exquisite. A professional sample of portrait making for each members. Many thanks and my compliments.

I would have to agree with that the effect was perhaps
not needed but it does add to the whole of the pic.
Other than that, wow, those eyes.
I bow my head in respect. (Saw some other pics from you as well)

This is just an amazing photo! WOW. This portrait made me stop in my tracks and just had to see it. Very soulful look on her face. I had to fav it!

wow... this picture is exquisite.
it looks like it could belong in a museum of fine arts...
artfully done.

Excellent portrait, very professionally done. Personally I feel that the canvas effect detracts from the image but maybe you had some reason for applying it that I am unaware of.

I think picture could be better without the effect, the kid and him expression are amazing.
