great image, very strong!


Alan Mead   {K:1984} 8/19/2003
This is a beautiful image and conveys much drama and sentiment. The rays of light shown by the dust or vapours adds greatly to the atmosphere. Even the litlIe piece of red pepper in the salad bowl is appropriate. It is natural and not contrived. I just love this one.


Nicola Vassallo   {K:9801} 8/19/2003
grandissima composizione con luce perfetta... mi sa di foto da cinema italiano!

very god portrait !


Anna    {K:2994} 8/19/2003
This is one of those photos that make work my brain so much... thinking of many stories behind the image: her expression, her pose: did she suddenly stop doing what she was doing because of a word? Was this word though? or was it just a the cruel truth?
Oh my... I could write a novel! :-)) Thank you for sharing.


lowell whipple girbes   {K:13181} 8/19/2003

Patricia Eifel   {K:5097} 8/19/2003
Superb! Very expressive portrait -- the figure is perfectly placed in context. Strong lighting is very dramatic but must have made for a difficult exposure but you pulled it off perfectly. Bravo!


Stefan A. F. Kassler   {K:3727} 8/22/2003
Ingenious picture. Very well done light and excellent composition! Which film did you use in this photo and the picture "A L E X"?

Ollie Mackley   {K:1744} 9/30/2003
i love the little whisps of smoke in the rays of light, and the way the woman looks sad, as if shes bored of being stuck in the kitchen... wonderful piece.


Lilian O. Mellemgaard   {K:343} 9/30/2003
She looks like a good witch! The light is perfect.. strong photo!!!!


ken krishnan   {K:19102} 9/30/2003
Tied to the kitchen for life - perhaps. Frustrations all over her face. May be the man is bad and mean. May she just didn't sleep well last night. May be......

Excellent potrait. well done. Congradulations on editos choice. Well deserved.

Good light, good portrait!


Mark Beltran   {K:32612} 11/8/2003
This is one that's well worthy of Editor's Choice. The presence of smoke makes the light coming in all the more palpable. The fill for the face and dress looks very natural, as it blends in well with the temperature of the light coming in. Very well done.


ifte amjad   {K:247} 11/8/2003
this image has made me like kitchens finally!

excellent mood and composition.


Manda Lee   {K:-32} 11/8/2003

Lorinda Millar   {K:2580} 11/11/2003
This is very skilfully executed - very difficult lighting, but you've done an excellent job. I love how you've still got nice soft lighting on her face and dress. Well done!
Lorinda

Good work!!! Tim.
