Sharon,

Somewhere up in the post I think I agree that the arm in #'s 2 and 3 is distracting. I have made a start on the indoor shot.

These photos were taken a couple of years ago. The subject is long gone. I am always in the market for an interesting face. I will even arrange a photo shoot with a total stranger, i.e., this person. This girl had a very interesting face. I would bet that the indoor shot was taken with 400 speed film, possibly even hand held. I try to get a little smarter each day.

When I have the space for a new project I go through my old photos and make a choice. There are times when I have to ask myself... shall I do this or shall I do nothing? I also try to post things that I think others may find interesting or may learn from.

One thing I am trying to do in this project is not be too slavish to the photo. In this photo I liked the girl's body and head. The curtain doesn't bother me a great deal depending on its intensity. As I go along, I may or may not leave it in. Thanks for your comments.
