i spent 5 minutes trying to think of a clever title and couldn't, so i wrote this instead

i like pictures that grab your attention and hold it. granted, i have a deep seated passion for staring contests so i may be naturally drawn to pictures of people literally staring back at me. regardless, i think our eyes are the work horses of body language and the most important part of a portrait. and it's not just an empty claim! when babies are confused they instinctively look at your eyes for clarification. at least i'm pretty sure i heard that somewhere..

I really like the photo on the right... the picture on the left looks like someone's had a few too many cocktails maybe...?
