Many thanks Surajit!
The only filters used were in post processing in photoshop. A little "softening".
Best Wishes,

You honour me Dear Albert.
I enjoy photographic (and other) art very much, but have never considered myself to be "that" good. I have always been surprised by awards received etc... but most especially I am humbled by your thoughtful words and the time you take to not only walk through my portfolio, but to comment so often. It really means a lot to me.
With Gratitude, Warm Wishes,
Aniko :)

Hi Aniko,
You're welcome. My comment maybe kind, because your work is really excellent. Like it a lot to "walk around" in your great portfolio.
So the thanks is the result of your nice images, that please my eyes.
Can learn a lot by viewing your shots and thinking about them.
Best wishes for you and yours,
Albert

How lovely, Shirley! I have some wonderful part cherokee friends, one of whom lives not far from me here in Australia.
This lovely girl is mostly Italian, and also has Egyptian blood. There are two photos here of her sister... I often work with sisters... this young lady is into acting, her sister is a model... The images of her sister I speak of are "Winter Warmth" and "Casual Fashion". Both girls are very beautiful (inside and out!) :)

Hi Rebecca. Thank you so much! This shot was "straight" with tungsten lamps and no diffusers. I was a little concerned at first that it might be too "hard", but i wanted those catch lights in her eyes very strongly. (I'm surprised the poor girl wasn't blinded!!!) The softness in her face was achieved in PS with a very slight "smart blur", which interestingly enough did not soften down her eyes! The image was cropped into square format and canvas rotated, as the girl is laying down. I thought the intensity of her look was better in this position. I hope that explains how I did it. I find it difficult to explain things sometimes... lol!
Thanks again, Rebecca.
Warm Wishes to you,
Aniko :)

Aniko, another fabulous portarit! LOVE it, there is an intensity in her eyes taht balances the dreamy feel to the shot perfectly. What filter application did you use on this to get this effect?

Thank you for your kind comments, Renato.
The lighting was actually rather strong during the making of this image. I was hoping it would not be too harsh. It seems it worked out nicely with her lovely soft eyes! :)
