Porcelain Eyes, a photo from Texas, South

Photographer's Note

These are two young girls that were sitting holding each other in a church courtyard. I was amazed with the sisterly love. Was shot from a distance un aware of there surroundings.

Hi Pam!
The girls eyes are very beautiful, so impressive! Maybe I´d prefer to have the focus on the right girls eyes. But it´s a good shot!

You should be on your way to the club getting ready to take a lesson not posting a pic to TE. You are addicted aren't you? This is a very sweet photo, what lens did you use to get it, the 70-200? You did a nice job with the eyes and even though the whites seem overexposed that seems to be the new portrait style and it works! Very artistic.

Hi Pam,
That high-key treatment works very well in here. It are the eyes which are the the main part in the picture, but they even get more attention by your pp work.
Love your tight crop here, really nice work.
Have a nice weekend, Henk

A very very sharp image. I love the eyes. You really captured it so well. Not only the eyes, but her mouth is also adds to the overall emotion of this picture. Also I love the little baby's face. She looks so adorable. It is like she is very comfortable, but also very thoughtful (look like she is thinking there).

There are thousand stories from this photo. I love it.

Well done
Sothy

Adorable high-key monochrome work!
Affectionate and soft blur without the eyes is so beautiful.
Amazing image like it was taken by a large format camera of 8 x 10.

This is a treat to look at Pam. Wonderful attitude full of complicity and tenderness, great crop cutting out anything else but them two. The eyes are amazing.
The treatment in black in white is sumptuous. No idea how you did it, but would be interested to have a hint...
My compliments, hope to see more...!

Amazing one, what a moment of sister's love you caught here !
This is why i love photography, emotion when seeing pictures like that can't be found else where in my case, in no other "art".
Beautiful
