yes, that's very nice. interestingly composed. what's that in the middle? can the sun really be so dark?

Lovely shot and great balance between the sharp woman and the blurred left side guy. Good thing the circular light (yes, what is it?) relates the two characters, like a symbolic sun or moon.

luko just stole my words on this one..the "sun" connects between the 2 characters..without it the picture would look empty.

Don't think she is modest. Not really beautiful either. What is beautiful here? THe picture, Adi!

Just copy and paste Maxim's comment and add... but she looks happy and serene. It's exactly what I think! Nice shot Adi.

She could be beautiful in portrait, in profile she's more 'striking', lovely composition, I'd love to know what that golden circle is too.

Lovely portrait - this lady's warm presence comes through.

This is great. Very nice use of limited DOF, and a nice, natural expression on her face. I like that gold orb as well, although I dont' really know what it might be(doesn't quite seem like lens flare, but I guess that is most likely). I will go against what a few others have said, the out of focus man in the background does not really add for me. It doesn't particularly detract either, but I think I would have cropped between the orb and the man, to make the shot a little more intimate. Very nicely done.

Even if you cover her mouth you can see the smile from her eyes. Very expressive. The man's silhouette is nice too.

Just an amazing portrait. The golden orb does not bother me much and the man provides balance to the picture.

What a wonderful presence here ! Very well composed and focused ! Round face, round shape and fuzzyness. Everything is so soft !

Great shot! DOF is great, the composition is great, since you managed not to center the girl...the title is very good too! Great job!
