Took this at the Japanese festival held every year at the Missouri Botanical garden, St. louis, Mo.

North light from two story window, fill from umbrellas she was selling. 105 at F4.0

Nice, good to see a profile portrait for a change, most people don't take them, my guess is that the want to hide ugly noses
Have you tried to crop it as a face-and-shoulders only? Or at least at half the belly. I find the wristwatch a bit disturbing.

Orio,
I'll try the suggested crop. I too, find the watch sort of out of place.
Thanks
