April 13, 2011 7:49am I'm not sure if it was plannned or not but that single blue feather makes the entire image pop. while everything else is of a netrual brown pallet, the earring adds that unexpected zinger to the frame. the pose has action in it which is good. the lighting and contrast seems natural... i'm always a fan of added contrast but its up to the photographer or post editer to decide for themselves.... overall it's a pretty good picture. there does seem to be a bit of negative space that i personally don't like but once again it's your style. kudos.
