Hello Reout,

You've zoomed in on the lovely woman, and intuitively perhaps, you've done something quite especial. You've put one of her eyes (here her right) very near the vertical bisector of the frame. A few years ago it was discovered by Christopher Tyler, British-born psychologist practicing in San Francisco, about the centerline in all great portraits (from Leonardo's Mona Lisa to Rembrandt's self-portraits having been composed that way. I wrote about the principle in a book I wrote on Leonardo, "math and the Mona Lisa." Your portrait has the added benefit of the diffuse, soft focus -- It is very effective.

Warm regards,

Bulent
