Ronald,
I went through some of your pictures, I find them different and have something to think about... I beleive that photography and painting are not about creating something that people like, but to experss your ideas and what you beleive in.. You have your own path, and you excel at it.. :)
I like the pictures that make you wonder about their sotires.. like this one "Please Pardon my Behavior", I find it very interesting, and I wish you gave more information about its story.. :)
From the technical point of view, I find your way of combigning the different faces very good... as well as their composition.. :)

The title of this image leads the viewer in many different directions. It forces the viewer to consider the many different aspects of the title. Is the photographer or the subject giving the apology? Does the image depict the behavior that is needs forgiveness or the act of the apology? If the old cliché of a ?picture being worth a 1000 words? is true, the title certainly adds a few chapters.
My initial reaction is that the photographer is asking for forgiveness. The woman is seen at various times and with different facial expressions. This woman could be a wife, girl friend, sister, cousin or other close relative where a strong emotional bond exists. Her various expressions are the flood of differing emotions that occur during a confrontation.
Yet, the faces are soft and semi-transparent. The photographer is showing that although the emotions are there, they are not really necessary to communicate the deed that needs forgiveness. The photographer understands all to well and is only waiting to ask for forgiveness. The release of the emotions is more for the woman?s sake. When the flood of emotions have passed, then forgiveness can be asked.
Yet all the while, the thought of ?Please pardon my behavior? runs through the photographer?s mind, waiting for the right moment to ask.
On a technical note, the background on the left is really distracting. It is a highlight that commands attention, but it is out of focus leaving the viewer pondering what it is. If it should add to the story, then the objects should be recognizable.
