how very intense

The 'action' of the blurred bright lights at the top, the sublte purple shhen of the jacket at the bottom, all perfectly balacned with the gorgeous beauty in the center. Exquisit!

Looking at it, I would have thought it was at the Carnival, with the lights in the background. I like the definition of her face, and the halo glow of the lights above her.

You know what kicks about this shot? She's beautiful, obviously, but she has that New York City attitude. That whole, "yes, I'm pretty, but I'll drop you like a three-foot-putt if you get too close." Well done.

Discovered this project today...went through all of the protraits today...just amazing. Absolutely amazing.

I love how the picture shows her in an ordinary moment -- you can tell that she's over-the-top beautiful, but you have to look for it.

Love the arcing fountain the background.

Wow, I like this one a lot. The lights in the background remind me of Christmas for some reason. And Gloria's stunning, of course. Nice shot, Bill.
- Amy

the best part... the lights in the background look like a tiara.

I read those titles and not that she isn't lovely, she is. It's just that the shot captures that youthful excitement. She could be everygirl. Shoot, I am old and I can identify with the vibe here. There is fun to be had.
