I think I have a fetish with mouths. It seems to be the most seductive and expressive part of the face to me. I'm in love with the title of this piece.

Why thank you. It's so nice to have people comment on older works.

Kinda makes me go back and look over it all again, myself. Like dusting off memories.

Haunting and succulent... I must agree with Thorne that I see the darker side to this, rather than a lipstick smear I read those lips and see them split...
she's so very pale and the darkness suits her well. Wonderful and eyecatching work

my only beef is that the background should've been burned in darker, so it wasn't so visible.

other than that, great composition, usage of line, following the hair to the necklace, great tone on the lips, and great texture everywhere.

that nad if you are going to use a black backdrop like that and a dark sweater...use a spotlight as a back/hair light so you can see good detail on the sweater.

marcyintellect [2003-03-02 09:16:08 +0000 UTC]

either fix the background or reshoot it with a better depth of field so that the bg is properly blurred...and thats a hot sweater.

justthorne [2003-02-25 02:23:10 +0000 UTC]

Well, first off, regarding your description, all I can say is, "well, with a mouth like YOURS, no wonder!"

But I'm feeling on another planet about this one. Yeah, I see the positive possibility here, that the lipstick has been smeared in passion...

But I see a MUCH darker interpretation as well, and honestly it's much more prominent to me... I see this as a frankly upsetting image.

So I'm torn between the possibilities, but cannot help but lean toward the one that is much more powerful but, alas, much more sad.

Powerful shot. A lot is left up to the imagination, which is always good. You pulled this one off well.

wordsflylikefists [2003-02-25 00:45:41 +0000 UTC]

i love this. the title reminds me of the theme of the portfolio i'm working on, sort of a photo documentary of sorts about what it's like to be a girl around 16-19. i almost titled it "what it feels like for a girl" but i went with "her red self." anyway, i'm getting way off topic; what i basically wanted to say is that i love the composition and also the way that there is the blank space in the left, the lipstick is smeared toward the left, her hair is toward the left... it all goes together nicely.

this is the essense of what i see when i close my eyes and look for the lost side of my soul. crazy, spontaneous energy, perfect imperfection, anonymous fun, discernable passion, unknown motivations.

Ur composition is just bad ass, besides, this picture gets realy powerful when u get to the point of the lipstick blured all aroudn ur mouth. Very nice job, as usual

fredjacson [2003-02-24 19:01:59 +0000 UTC]

this is a great image. i love the smeared lipstick and the composition of the shot, cutting of the girls head just above the lips. really good contrast between her skin and shirt/background. great job.

Well, you've gotten loads of comments already and generally speaking I don't comment on works that have been commented to death, but I'll make an exception: fucking awesome--all of it (title, composition, contrast, everyting). I love it.

godchilde [2003-02-24 16:31:53 +0000 UTC]

oo0000ooo.... beautifully done.... the curve from hair to necklace to shoulder creates good movement.... as soon as my eyes hit the background they are drawn back to the face....

stub [2003-02-24 15:38:27 +0000 UTC]

I think you're creating a lip/mouth fetish for me... Your skin appears to be pretty hot here... While it does help accentuate the lips, a little bit of tone there wouldn't hurt.

san-tor [2003-02-24 15:26:40 +0000 UTC]

Everything looks very eye-catching... but I love the fact that the mouth isn't exactly at the center nor on any point of the thirds rule. It breaks the balance, the symetry and everythig.
Breaks the rules.

Maybe that's what being a woman is... being an alternative person that sadly it's struggling on this man dominated empire that we call earth.

I simply love it!

theapan [2003-02-24 14:57:47 +0000 UTC]

i like it a lot... off-center composition rule. perhaps a little bit too light skin for me, but hey - i'm just another wimp!

your wish is my command, Miranda

just added your mom to my DevWatch, by the way...to the photo...you really created a masterful vision of expressive & emotive photography with this capture...the cropping adds so much to the overall feel of the piece as if to pull the viewer in by its mystique - i love the tones & contrasts here as well - very striking...i am also awestruck by the ways in which your hair moves across your neck (a nice touch) - the "FULL" view is the way to look at this as with all DA art - And, of course, the great center piece of this capture are your full & beautiful lips and the way in which the lipstick is smeared - really the defining moment of it all i would say....yes, i am a great lover of lips as well as eyes...all in all, one of, if not, your BEST submission to date

I like contrast and how her clouds look on the blach background.

Mouths are definately sexy and seductive. Eyes can be too though - the only problem is eyes can carry too much weight into who someone is when all you want to do is kiss them. I love the shot and how it's off-centered.
