I love the creativity in this image! I would recommend darkening the eyebrow to add more dimension to the photo. :D

Location
This photo was taken in the backyard of my college house. I was in a creative mood, photoshopping all day and my friend ( featured in this photo) popped by. Right away I asked if I could paint her face and she gave me a look, but agreed after a laugh, and we got to work!Time
Late afternoon.Lighting
Some good old fashioned daylight. In the shade to give the perfect look.Equipment
Nikon D700Inspiration
I was just feeling creative that day and had a wonderful friend willing to play dress up!Editing
Yes, this has been retouched to soften the face, accentuate the lips and bring a pop to the overall look.In my camera bag
My camera, two lenses and a shammy.Feedback
Focus on the eyes! The eyes are the key to the soul. Capture that.
