Beautiful portrait lighting ... you can see it in her eyes and in her face. Love the colors that the pencils bring to the image. Well done!

The lighting here is a little flat ... meaning, "too even". You need highlights AND shadows in order to define a 3D object in the 2D space of a photograph. And with guys... you can play with very contrasty light (deep shadows) to delineate their shape and form.

GORGEOUS! What a wonderful capture of his expression. I love the lighting that was used here, and the colors are just perfect.

As "unreal" (or "other worldly") as it already looks, I think you could have pumped up the saturation without fear of it making it wrong. This is really pretty cool. I'll be interested to find out what it was after voting is done.

I think I'd pull her left should back just a tad more. But otherwise the pose is nicely done, as is the lighting and composition.

Wow, beautiful job on the B&W toning. And what a lovely portrait to remember your grandpa!

I always love this pose, the angle of it, as it forces you to look right into her eyes with everything else going out of focus with shallow DOF. IMO, you've done very well here. The only complaint would be the hose or whatever the green line is. But you can easily fix that in post, so no problem there. But I gotta say this: Wow! What beautiful eyes she has!!!
