excellent choice of exposure. Very nice composition. I wouldn't change your crop, but I do find the person standing at left distracting. I think the shot woudl be better without him.

Exceptionally well executed, high interest. Perfectly exposed. the blurred smoke is a perfect counterpoint to the perfect crispness of the... um, I'm guessing... refinery?

I really like what you did with this image. It works grat as a duotone, and indeed it works as "high key"; even thought the original was overexposed, very little detail was lost in the faces.
the only thing I'd do different is the area around her neck, the oval looks "fabricated". Leave in a little of her shirt and shoulder, creating a more natural neckline.
