Honestly, it feels like your camera just fell down while taking your photo. I would prefer to see a face or partial face in a portrait photo... instead of this :( Sorry.

A very nice close-up portrait. Alive, and sharp. Nice DOF. It tells me story from your eyes. Story of something... maybe "life". Very good photo; if the lighting in your eyes would be round, I would like it more.

Nice photo. You took risk catching cold to take this one. This challenge was advanced editing, and you actually could enhance the colors a bit more. It is a sharp, clean picture. I think the reason I see it little fade is taken in cloudy day. I am not sure how, but it could be done a bit brighter. Still is a cool(!) photo :)

Nice... not much going on. I like the mirror frame idea. and also bw works well. Good positioning in the frame. The camera seems like left in the dark, and I think I would like to see more of it... a bit more. Overall is a good portrait photo though ;)

A very pretty face. Good composition. Nice makeup. One thing bothers me in this photo is the softness. If you'd have better focus, or little sharp eyes, or better yet, colored eyes and rest bw... you probably would go through my brain like laser :) right now, it bounces back from my forehead :) Show us some color eyes after the challenge is over please :)

I am not sure why didn't you put color version of your head there. I think it would do much better. bw is ok too but it stays a bit dark. A very good idea and I like the composition. Framing is nice. I would like to see a color faced version after the challenge is over :)

White headset is definitely the subject here. I think I know what you were trying to do. I think could be done better though. You have a shadow that gives the "fast" photo feeling. Little fix should do. Nice composition though. I am sure next time you'll do much better ;)
