That's a lovely portrait.

Thank you! I'm really happy with it.

Beautiful photo of a beautiful girl :)

Thank you! You can't beat daylight to bring out the colours (huge window camera right). :o)

Gah, I really need to learn to smile at the camera more often! It's a god photo though, thank-you. :-) One thing; have you edited my haemangeoma, or did the light from the window just bleach it out in the photo? If the former, I'd like to see the original. :-)

Not all portraits require a smile and I usually prefer non-smiling portraits so no worries there. :o)
Glad you like it, it's included in the batch I uploaded yesterday (you should have received a notificiation from dropbox).
Yes, I spent some smoothing your neck (really need to learn how to do that properly/more quickly). I'll mail you a copy of the original Saturday evening (gig tonight, early start and out all day tomorrow).

Thank-you. Just so you know for any future pics, I'm usually happy for it to appear in photos of me. I could have had it lasered colourless after GOSH reconstructed my ear, but I deliberately chose not to because it's such an integral part of who I am. Usually I get photos with my hair covering it or from the other side rather than photoshopping it out altogether. :-)

Ah OK. I remember you asking me if I could edit it when we were at The Roost or maybe it was along the lines of "That way you'll be able to see haemangeoma on my neck." and I said that I could edit it out and you said OK. Never mind. It's done. Good to know, though. :o)

A lovely pic!

Thank you! :o)
