a trusting smile in the darkness of it all! I wonder how a version with a smaller head (smile still visible, same relative position, more 'black space') might look like. Very interesting picture!

Dana, I've tried to reduce even further and took it past breaking point. I feel this is in the right balance now between hiding and revealing.

Marcus, it is readily apparent that you patiently played with this until you got it just right. I think it's superbly captured. One thing that bothers me, though, and don't ask me why, but I'd like to see this without that dark strip of nose shadow that extends beyond the lower lip. Call me crazy, and a minor quibble to be sure. Nicely done, sir.

Marcus Hammerschmitt said (5 Jan 2010):
Michael, probably I will not invest another two hours to retouche that shadow - but you're absolutely right. I feel honoured by your paying such close attention.
