Before I talk about the photo, let me just say that my cousin is in no way shape or form murderous. She is generally very cute, just at this moment, not. So anyways, I just desaturated the photo and increased the contrast/decreased the brightness, and minimally cropped to take a little bit of a basket out of the left hand side. Compare her eyes, I think they make the picture.
Hi Kyle, This is a pleasing image. The b&w tone and the strong contrast blends perfectly well plus the grain effect that adds to the drama in this scene. Not to mention the blurry background! extraordinary work!
You're so young and with BIG potential, Kyle. It's a good thing you started at an early age, me I just started few months back. I know you'll make it BIG in photography as I browse thru your portfolio, and all of them are very impressive!
