Martierra

A shot that I did back in 2006, during my senior year in high school while sitting in Creative Writing class. It is of an acquaintance of mine named (obviously) Martierra. The original version wasn't that good, so I played around with in using GIMP. I think that it came out pretty well, almost serene. Her facial expression and the candidness of the shot make me love this photo even more. Some people have criticized this shot as going a bit overboard with the softglow, but I think it is at the right level. However, one thing that I will admit, is when I increased the size of it, the resolution went downhill. Also, I used a relatively cheap digital camera to take the shot. But, even with those restraints, I think it turned out well.
