I had my portfolio reviewed and the advice I got was: simplify, get in close and for heavens sake, focus the eyes!

Beautiful girl, beautiful pictures!

Focus is my worst problem. The shallow DOF on my lens (50mm F1.4) sometimes means I get 1 eye in focus and not the other or the nose is in focus and the eyes aren't. I could stop down the aperture, but I always seem to be fighting low light. Woe is me...

Not to mention your subjects are the type that are on the move. Ashley made it easy to practice but she is not the 'real world'. Still I could take pictures of her eyes everyday and it would still be fun.
Thanks for the comments. Its nice to talk to someone about this stuff.
