Sometimes I have to hold onto the images I have taken for a while. This gives me time to look back at what I have done. This also gives me time to turn off my hypercritical eye. I have two recently taken photos that keep coming back to me. This is one of them. I was not immediately impressed with the results. I went through all the self-critique. Too static, too pink, too boring, not well-composed. I added some new ones for myself as well; this is just boring. Lighting is atrocious. You got the picture!
I saw this photography inside my discerning light web portfolio and have had to look at it more critically, but with a new lens. I like the image. It is not what I thought it was, but it is a beautiful portrait.
I bet you have some like this in your shoebox (electronic or otherwise). Pull them out. Look at them again. You might be amazed at what you see today.
The other portrait is tomorrow.
