Faceless Eyes - C&C Welcome

[fotugraphy]

Hi, going forward on my photography venture I stopped and clicked another shot. Can you please review it and let me know what exactly is missing for it to make it much better?

This is a candid shot and she was trying to shy away from the camera. She got big hands and found them dominating the frame so i have gone really tight with the crop to emphasize more on her eyes and less on the hands and wanted to show just little bit of hands.

In the post processing i have deliberately burnt the hands compared to the face to show that these hands are not hers but someone else is holding the cloth.

Please provide your views and suggestion with composition, frame, crops and processing.

Thank You

PS : Please click on the image for lightbox screen view (Highly recommended)



Non-Cropped Version :

Very expressive eyes that don't seem to match the hands. Nicely captured.

Thanks for your kind review That was the idea in Post Processing to mismatch the hands and the eyes.

The crop is better, Raj...I like the emphasis on the eyes and looking in lytebox makes a big difference like I'd like to see more of what she is looking at or where she is facing, what image is there...Good shot!

The crop makes the image Raj, obviously the image is the eye's and you have captured them beautifully.
Best give National Geographic a ring with this one

Definitely the cropped one. The hands are confusing though...

Thanks a lot for your kind review that was the idea to show in the cropped version that these hands are not hers, but in reality they are.
