But it would have been a little better not to move anything but look ore off to the right of the camera (your left) just so your iris would be bigger and the white a little smaller. But other than that very good.

Interesting photo - I like the bokeh. But the cropped out strap is kinda noticeable

I just realized I put up the none cropped one oopsy and thanks for the suggestion. Yeah the white of my right eye is quite bright which is the only thing that bothers me about this picture :/

I like the picture, good focus and composition, I like how you are nailing the shots without even seeing what you are shooting. Nice emotion, you have beautiful eyes.

Lets just say I had to take A LOT of pictures to get one good shot but I find the challenge so rewarding at the end!

Good to see a young woman interested in photography. We need many more such as you. You have a good feel for it. And the white of the eye can be subdued easily in post-processing so I wouldn't worry much about this.

If you want a better chance to get a good photo you should get a small tv with hdmi input and the micro to hdmi cable for the K-5 that way when you go to pose you can see what it will look like so you can adjust before the photo is taken. and you can move the tv to the spot you want to look for the photo so you don't get caught not looking in the right spot.

Lovely to see someone else giving self portraits a shot! Love the eye that's further away from us.
You've got beautiful eyes and I love your hair. Keen to see more

Ah and 135mm! That's a long way away for selfies, I'm impressed!

Thats the same for most images when your going for perfection, but that's a photographer/artist thing, as the members of the general public don't even notice the differences.
