Kailas – thanks for the nitpicks I would say both perfectly valid. In my defense I would like to clarify that #1 This was a single light setup experiment and #2 the lady in question had never face a camera before

Nice play with lighting and well composed. If there was one thing I would alter, it would be the the model’s face (the side facing the viewer) be slightly (note, slightly) more illuminated; and, a slightly more relaxed expression. I guess am nitpicking.
Good shot!

I agree with your #2 point specifically the *most beautiful girl* part and the caption of the photograph particularly emphasizes that – so I don’t know what you feel bad about.

Regarding #1 I feel it is quoted out of context here. BTW I did not know that Eleanor Roosevelt was also known as “The Mahatama”. Thanks for visiting and commenting

P.S. On second thoughts quote is in fact most apt and reflects what I have already written “no one absolutely no one other than your own self has the onus of your self esteem.”

I have just two things to say.
1. A quote by the Mahatma “No one can be made to feel inferior without their consent”
2. Of all girls on the earth you have chosen the most beautiful girl that i have ever known for this piece. I really feel bad Mr.Tarique.

Thanks for visiting… I had to work really hard to make them get over it, the first step usually involves acceptance of the fact that you are indeed beautiful. Nothing better than a photo shoot to convince

Even if the mothers don’t do it, someone else does it. A seemingly loving grandmother or an aunt who herself has the complex.

And it is tougher if you have an a “beautiful” sister – the relatives who don’t say anything but just prefer the beautiful one over you.

I don’t think one can really ever get over it. At least that is what my experience has been.
