Description This is a portrait I took a couple years ago. I positioned her so the sun was directly behind her head, creating a nice halo effect with her hair.

Nice. The halo effect looks good. The model looks a bit fearful of something.

very nice..i like the glowiness of it all... makes me think of an angel
...or that she just kind of accidently blew up the whole world, hence the light, and god's all "um..wtf??" and that's why she has this "er....yah.." expression...

riiiiight
anyhow, is pretty

She looks like Christy Turlington.
And I very much mean it as a compliment.

Very nice shot. I love her expression. Think the halo came out good too - its a tricky shot to do.

Great shot... the sun trick worked out very well with this one... I love the blown out feel of the hair as it seems to push the focus in to her face and really "lifts" the shot. Wonderful work all around

Wow...great styling on this! Great model! Great shot!

Also those eyes are amazing, is that blue and light brown?

Beautiful model... I love the expression on her face....

Nice idea to use the sun, it may a saturate a little the colors though, but the render here is nice... Keep it up!

Love the expression, the eyes very intriguing.

Good setup, I really like the halo effect in this shot, gives a nice isolation to the face without overpowering it.

Two thumbs up!

the halo effect you created is wonderful, not to overpowering either

Love the pose and expression. The colors though ... not very natural looking to me. Perhaps a conversion to B&W? Just a thought.

Expression and cropping..NICE. The hair is a little too blown out on the right side, would like to see it more highlighted from the back. Great model though!

Let me comment before the man drool prevents my entry into this deviation page.

not sure I like the halo effect, especially with that yellowish tint in the lower portion...

I do like her expression though... eyes seem very fixated.
