August's Blog Circle Topic was Close-Up Portraiture. A fun topic and one that is relatively easy for me since I tend to do a tight crop while shooting... I love opening up my lens of choice as wide as possible so I get a really lovely blurred background. I could go back into my files and find hundred of pictures that would fit this category, but I am using a few photos specifically taken for this month's topic.
Sometimes I have a hard time with deciding how a half-face crop looks best -- I do like this one with just part of his right eye, all of his nose and most of his mouth. Do you agree, or does it look strange?
