  #2! Personally, I don’t like the hair-uncovered ear on # 1. Plus you seem to be posing a bit too much. #2 has a dreamy sense over it which I like. Note for Ted: try to have the focal point on the eyes. AFAICT, it is on the left shoulder somehow. But nothing which can’t be remedied with some sharpening. 🙂

  #1 – look them in the eye.

  #1. the direct gaze.

  Both are nice:

  #1 if it were for a book / author headshot. #2 for SXSW

  #2
  nicer eyes and facial contour

  I think looking right at someone of #1 is necessary for headshot for conference purposes – and love the reflective tone and artful angle of #2. Possible to do a #3 to combine these elements?? Look forward to seeing you at SXSW!

  #1 would be my choice. In #2 your face is not in focus. Also, I’d put the camera lens a little higher.

  I like the hair curling around — it looks softer. #2 looks a bit ethereal, but I think that works for you.

  Funny what we notice. #1 for me, though I prefer the lighting and visibility of the eyes in #2.

  I like #2. It’s a nice expression and kind of artsy.

• 12 Katherine // Nov 15, 2005 at 2:03 am

  I love them both, but I would have to vote for #2. Shows where you get your strength. 🙂

• 13 Bob V // Nov 15, 2005 at 1:30 pm

  I have no particular reason why, but #2 is what I would pick.

• 14 Julie // Nov 16, 2005 at 1:57 am

  Wow, thanks everyone! Helpful and also intriguing responses. Looks like #2 has a few more votes at this point. Maybe I’ll try Evelyn’s suggestion for a #3 sometime…

• 15 Garrett Fitzgerald // Nov 18, 2005 at 9:29 am

  Belated vote for #1 here. 🙂

• 16 Beth // Nov 18, 2005 at 7:10 pm

  #1 – I like to see eye contact

• 17 Julie // Nov 19, 2005 at 11:29 pm

  I like the way you are holding your head in #2, but I see you looking at the camera as you are in #1.

  So yes…I’m going for photo #3.
