Description

I'm just being lazy and uploading old stuff. Though I have to say, I've always really liked this one. It's not terribly well composed or anything, but I like it all the same. I think it's my expression, because it feels honest, bare. Unfortunately, I have no memory of what I was thinking at the time.

Enjoy and please comment!

I like it.  But for me, the picture captures the moment just as the subject has decided to be honest with the one at whom she looks. 
 

If I were trying to portray honesty, the person would be facing the camera squarely.  Forthright, as it were.  In this picture, the look is towards the viewer, but the body is turned. So for me, this picture suggests the instant when she turns her head, with her soon to turn the rest of her body in alignment. 
 

If she never makes that turn, she can still be honest, but the direction of her body would then suggest some degree of defensiveness.  So if this pose is maintained, it would be a sort of guarded honesty.
