I like the new one Joji! The cool tone colors make it very wintery!

I find that a lot of what I end up liking are the little accidents like that!!

I like the shot- the only thing I would say is to increase the color in the eye closest to camera slightly, this would make your gorgeous eyes pop right off the photo :D

Cool photo. I agree with @rebcastillo77 - the skin tones are stunning and the lighting overall is very cool (in a temperature sense). A little more contrast in the eyes would turn a great photo into a stunning photo. Also (not sure if you have editing software of not) - a little more black in the piercings to show them off against the skin.

For me its about not using my knowledge but seeing without the noise or intention. I find the harder I try the further away I get from the essence of the moment captured.
Playing and having fun is more important to me than the finished piece. Art is subjective and cannot be judged.
