Low Key Lighting TE Straight Images

This image was one of my top 5, the reason or this is because I like the way that the girl is staring out, into distance. She looks natural, though I know the picture is posed, it also isn't. I asked her to just be neutral, and whilst she knows someone is capturing her, it also shows someone trying to cover up a feeling in front of others.
Completely different to the first photo, in this one the girl is  deadpanned. Her eyes are sharp, focused. To me, it look alike she is trying to tell me something, she is trying to convey an emotion that words couldn't possibly do justice, yet I am to find out which emotion that is.
I really like this photo; the hair is curled to  perfection although it is natural. I like the fact that only from the nose down is visible. This to me lets the viewer, view the photo however they wanted. The eyes are the window to the soul, but without any eyes penetrating you, it is up to you to decide on the emotions of the person. And what you decide, is a reflection on you. 
Distance, distance is a common theme though out this shoot. I believe there is something very intriguing about people looking away, consciously or unconsciously. To me, if I cover the eyes, her mouth posture looks happy/posed, however, when I cover her mouth, her eyes seem to be fearful, reserved, looking a little lost. 
This is another photo I liked. I like this one because though you can only see half of the girls face, and whilst her eyes are suppose to be lost in the shadows, the iris (coloured part of an eye) is piercing through. Her eyes look blue, which would be due to the effect I edited in (in actual fact, her eyes are a dragon green).
