Final Test Shot

this is the shot i've chosen to use for my magazine front cover:

I chose it because it held a combination of all the factors and focuses that I wanted to include within my front cover. The artist hold s the angle of gaze really well and there's an equal amount of both her plain face and her holi covered face, which is what I wanted. I also happen to really like her hair from this photo and how the photo starts to almost fade away at the top which goes nicely with the theme of my masthead.

I've differed from what I originally wanted my models pose to be. When taking the photos, it became much easier to be able to get a better quality forward facing shot then trying to get the side angle I initially wanted. Though that I've taken this one, I'm much happier with the result.
