Linerberry from Sumner, Christchurch, New Zealand

Do you realise that you do portraits/people images so incredibly well my friend??? I think I have said before (and I will say again) that you have an amazing way of creating emotion in your images and this is just as evident if not more, in your 'people shots'. You 'GET' the eyes, I don't know how...but you do!!! Incredible Kyles, dead proud of you :-)))

Lovely desaturated portrait ... one is drawn right to the most saturated part of the image ... her lovely eyes.

Andrew Gould from Sydney, Australia

As evereyone's saying, this is a beautiful portrait with a soft look to it. I find it fascinating how the background tones echoe the skin tones. The expression on your subject's face is entrancing. The use of the negative space within the frame is very effective, too.
