Nice backlight on the hair and smooth bokeh. I may be mistaken, but do I detect a slight amount of flare in the bottom right of the picture? Anyway, nice shot!

Great shot! Love the backlighting. Another great shot from the 75-150/4.

I like the light in the hair. Excellent exposure given the backlit subject. When I first saw it I thought this must have used fill flash. Very nice.

OK OK, this is my cousins daughter, but i think i can still add a comment. the girl is just gorgeous faisal! but i wish i could say good things about your camera skills! hehehehe. no im just joking. you picked the best shot of the bunch. its very nicely taken. is she smiling, or is she showing curiosity towards something? her mysterious expression adds to the photo. i like your choice of background color. the green really enhances her black hair and compliments her skin tone. great shot!!!! now i'll have to beat it but i dont have an olympus! oh wait! i do have an old olympus XA rangefinder, but its going to be hard to beat this shot with that camera!

I would have loved this photograph no matter how it was taken because Aimen is my niece. Besides this I must say that I never knew that my brother was such a good photograher. I loved that light shining through her lovely curly hair. Faisal I am coming for a photoshoot. I am sure you will make me look beautiful.

Absolutely beautiful, well lit and executed image. I like the backlighting...she is beautiful.

What a nice shot. The 75-150 really allows you to frame your shots. This is why the 75-150 is one of my carry lens. You have talent and should post some more of your photos.
