[Notas - Normas] Nota do Artista
keffiyeh is a traditional arab headdress, made of a square of cloth ("scarf"), usually cotton, folded and wrapped in various styles around the head. it is commonly found in arid climate areas to provide protection from direct sun exposure, as well as for occasional use in protecting the mouth and eyes from blown dust and sand.

it is also became a symbol for palestinian nationalism. although this attire is usually associated with arab maculinity, this was worn by leila khaled, former member of the popular front for the liberation of palestine (pflp).

Nice close close shot ... the shape of the keffiyeh acts as an excellent compositional element to bring the eye down Christine's face.

That's too bad about work - bro you're allowed to take a break from daily postings you know. Give yourself a break and take it a little easy. (Why do you think I only post every 2 days?)

excellent shot jeff. the shemagh seems to provide protection to that rather shy expression on her face

70mm works very well here, it keeps the volumes of the face!
very well done

its so soft and full of emotion.

Beautiful portrait, Jeff. I really like your composition with her head at an angle and half her face hidden in the keffiyeh. Nice tonal range on her skin and great choice of D0F. Excellent!

Great portrait, Jeff! Love your angle and composition. To be nit picky, I find the transition from in focus to out of focus on the left side a bit drastic. It just plays tricks with my eyes. Again, I am very nit picky this morning. This is still a brilliant portrait!

Bellísimo retrato, la composición correcta y el B&W ayuda mucho.
Felicitaciones Jeff.
Que pases una buena semana.
Saludos.

Great texture, I’ve used it myself on a guy here in New York.. Nicely done

Welcome to the "veil" club Jefe :) I don't know but for some reason gustong gusto ko ang portraiture na may veil. I think it looks striking.

Reflector lang sa baba, to minimize the shadows down her lips, good almost a butterfly lighting you applied here. Other than that very good composition. Cheers tokayo always.

Thank/Salamat,
Jeffrey

love the comp here jeff :)
the tight close framing is very effective
superb sharpness and details
good choice of b/w
