Great use of the reflection. Love the right hand and swirly cuff part of the picture and such a beautiful espression.

What a super cool shot, the reflection is excellent. This has inspired me to take people some more.

Hi, just thought I would repost the answer to your "archiving" question. Hope that it is of help. Not sure if you got it.

I love the perspective and differing colours to these pumpkins. My favourite I feel.
Erm, not sure how much help I'll be here but I'll have a go.
I shoot RAW now, mainly because, were I to sell any images I know I can produce any size print people may require due to the fact that i'm shooting to full capacity.
Viewing these is a pain as this can, only, as you know, be via CS.
Now, I am notoriously bad at any form of organisation but have found this to be rather straight forward:
1. Process images as and when I feel, usually through excitement as I go. All images are resized to my desired spec for the site and placed in a folder "images to be posted"
2. When I can be bothered, once posted, I sporadically transfer them into a differing file "posted images"
N.B. these two folders are linked to my itunes thus transferring to my ipod photo. Not lots of use but quite good if you wish a thrid party to have a quick peak, thus giving them an idea of my work, resulting (hopefully) in further interest. Besides, I like my tech and my music follows me wherever I go so the images are always to hand.
3. Yet to be implemented, but, here goes. My photos have a new folder for each day of shooting. I probably have about thirty, some of which have images deleted out as I go, some that need culling. A little time consuming but not too much. Now, you could either transfer these to CD under different categories (still life, B&W etc) or just leave them date only with a few notes as to the key images for each one. I am wondering whether, due to speed whether I should just "zip drive" them. Far quicker. After all, approx 10 discs of data is a little time consuming to transfer. I am also thinking of saving the abridged images with a code (for the website) and giving the RAW file a corresponding code so that you can then find them if so required because if you are anything like me, a hoarder and someone who shoots the same subject eight times, knowing which one you used for the website is a little difficult. This coding system can be placed on the disk and sleeve and hey presto, no problem. In fact, that's it, I feel coding the RAW and the posted image to be a great idea because if after two years you go back to three discs all saying "autumnal shots and berries" you aren't gonna have a clue!
Hope this helps. Clarified it for me.

Facinating concept.
It's like she's looking into her own childhood, past , present & future.
Adding to my favourites.

She's beautiful. She looks so pensive against the window. Great shot.
