I Heart Faces - Beautiful eyes



Sometimes when out and about on my little adventures I come across someone with a face and eyes so captivating that I simply HAVE to take their picture. I already have the portrait image in my head. I get over any 'shyness' or nervousness and ask them if I can take their photo because I know if I didn't ask I would have their image in my head for the rest of the day LOL. No joke!
This lovely lady was one of those faces. She was in a temple in Kyoto and her face just lit up the room and as you can see her eyes have a lightness about them....life is literally dancing out of her eyes! I love her face! I asked her if I could take her photo and I took just 2 within the space of a couple of seconds! I love how it came out, just like the visuals I saw in my brain!
There are nearly 1,000 uploaded 'beautiful eyes' photos at 'I heart faces' go check some out! Cheers!
