WOW what a rip. Looking at the photos above you in disbelief.Sometimes I wonder about this scoring.Great contrast/lighting. Just a smidgen more depth of field to sharpen lips would make this about perfect.
GREAT JOB!!
(not dogging the pics above you they are good yours is just better:> )

This is just rocks. They turn white because of the clay in the Blue Lagoon.

There are those eyes again! She has amazing eyes!

Very cool and imaginative... her eyes are really intense looking! I love the shadows you used here. I think I would have liked a little less black space at the top, and it would have been nice to see her entire reflection possibly... originally had you at a 7, now I'm putting you at an 8. Great job!

i get a feeling this image is on the verge of having been over processed...... I think there is a touch of sharpening that appears to be visible....... It is a wonderful portrait in a special place. The high contrast lighting adds to the mood of the picture......

This image has a very nice sort of mystery to it.. i love the look and her big eyes... I think the only thing that bugs me on this a little is the negative space in the top of the frame... I may like this particular shot better if some, but not all, of that was cropped out... great shot.. = 9 - setzler

the slight tilt works well here as does opening the eyes wide to get good translucency and high lights

Wonderful shot!!!

the vertical head and the not-quite-horizontal water is a bit disconcerting 5

Interesting composition. I remember those eyes (very beautiful) from another challenge. I like the different composition and framing. Good job. 9 Jacko

Why do all of her photos come out like she's wired?! hehe... I dunno, I just see more photos with lesss white in the eyes.

Interesting shot. Nice lighting, good use of negative space, a simple effective composition. Very nice.

Interesting use of light. I think it would have been much,much better if you could have left the rocks out and maybe a little less intensity on the eyes.
