Took this picture in Chiang Rai last month.

B/w conversion done in PS. Critiques welcome.

tight crop without the blown highlight of the subject's back will be good. draws viewers towards the subject (person) or action (smoking). good picture.

Thanks for the comments. I think the highlights in the web version looks more blown out than it actually is. Oh well!

Nice shot. The first thing I saw was the pall of smoke and then the face.

A tighter crop might help but I think the photo looks good as it is.

Actually, I intended for it to have more space, to indicate the act of thinking. She was rather deep in thought at that point of time.

Thanks for commenting.

I like it. It tells me that she is deep in thought and the pall of smoke adds to the intensity.

The exact emotions I wanted to extract from viewers!
