Heidilyn, you've done a great job here with some nice even lighting and I like your pose. Those big blue eyes and red hair don't hurt either!

Nice shot, Heidi! I like the relaxed pose, sitting backward on the chair. Nice, even lighting, too! Thanks for sharing.

Yeah...it was all I had to work with at the moment. I impressed myself by taking it using my nifty fifty on my D40!

There is a lot to be said about nifty fifties, I love mine. Your portrait is a real winner with the lighting and perfect exposure. Very very nice...
