Another beauty Brian. I do like the little angst form the composition I get when viewing this . Correct me if I am wrong but the composition of the lady positioned looking to the right is not the norm maybe, but for me when it works I love it, it gives a positive vibrancy about the image. Another cracker. Good tones as well with a bit of vinaigrette

I can't remember who said it, but it was something along the lines of "a pretty girl in a gallery is worth more than all the paintings put together", and I often find myself agreeing with the sentiment.

Fine, shot, Brian. The vinaigrette is indeed delicious!

Thank you very much, Julian. I appreciate very much your comments about the angst/vibrancy. For me her placement in the frame and the direction of her gaze seems just a little off-kilter and I think maybe this is what provides you that angst/vibrancy thing. The "vinaigrette" may be enhanced a little by the gallery lighting, but it's definitely there. Thanks again, Julian.

I would not hesitate to agree with that statement, Rob. Whoever said it is a wise fellow. (As are all those who agree with it!) Thanks for the comments, and I'm glad you like vinaigrette also.

I think I said it and I agree although you broke with all laws in photography. What was them laws again?

Wonderful composition Brian and I like the colours too. What I enjoy most is not knowing what she is looking at and the fact that the abstract on the wall has a more three-dimensional feel that she does.

Thanks a lot, Pete. This picture is actually a crop. The thing she was looking at was seriously distracting to the image I wanted to show.
