The photo is by flickr user guuleed. When I saw her eyes, this passage from Jesus' Sermon on the Mt. immediately came to mind.
There's three of these and they're options for a poster for a friends wall, I need a quick artistic appraisal, some constructive criticism etc on which one to choose. If you have/know of any other images that'd work well with this scripture please let me know.
Thanks loads everyone.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind
Friday evening after the first session of a women's conference I attended, (long story - I worked the sound equipment, they supplied cheesecake) I decided to take the stairs. I walked down this hallway, which was quite dark. Chills went up the back of my neck (I shave my head- the hair can't stand up) and I resisted the feeling of fear confessing that scripture and rebuking the enemy. The stairs at the end of the hall were unfamiliar, but they went down. They ended on the second floor, but I was headed to the first. As I walked up the hall on the second floor I was blessed with a fantastic gallery of black and white photographs, and discovered the old chapel. You'll see it in a couple other shots. It is now used for wedding receptions and such. Very ornate and beautiful.
Since we know that God has not given you a spirit of fear, it must be coming from someone else - the enemy. Fear is the opposite of faith, as Jesus said "Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?(Mark 4:40) (Mat 8:26) ; also see Rev 2:10
When you feel fear, rebuke it, press through, trust God, believe and confess His word. It's likely the devil is trying to keep you from a blessing - unless that fear involves sky diving without a parachute or something foolish like that.

I had a request to put Scripture on some of my favorite images, so I will be adding some of my favorite verses. No comments are needed but if you want to, by all means, please do! Thanks for enjoying them!

"Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience."

Colossians 3 King James Version (KJV)
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
21 Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
22 Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God;
23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
25 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
Rev 12:7
And there was war in heaven:
Michael and his angels fought agains the dragon;
and the dragon fought and his angels,
And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

China. Yunnan. Shangri-la Old Town. Dukezong.
On the Old Town Square is the scripture chamber (Gucheng Zangjingtang), which was earlier a Red Army Memorial hall to commemorate the Red Army's long march in the 1930s. At the opposite end of this hall, across the street is the Gulshan Park (Gulshan Gongyuan), which has a monastery with a commanding view of the town and its surroundings.
