photosenior - thanks. I prefer the second myself so clearly tastes differ, which is as it should be.
Jim - thanks, you're right about the ear. Hard to catch at that second so if it was an important shot I'd probably clean it away in post. As for his eyes, you can see from the forehead lines that he raised one eyebrow so that eye is bigger. The shot was looking a bit staid through the viewfinder so I said "more intense" and got this. I'd rather have it look a bit odd
benee - thanks, it's a 50mm up close. I realise a 100 from further would be more conventional but conventional doesn't always have impact so I'm happy with this. I wouldn't use a 35 or 28 this close though - I'd have to park it up his nostrils! I do like the close feeling - that's why I crop the top of the head too, to make the viewer feel closer. Not sure it's a technique I'd use on a pretty girl much, although I have done ....
