Girl from Ipanema

I fail to see why it actually matters whether or not she comes from Ipanema - I noticed some people making a fuss about that. What I love about this shot is the way that the girl is looking off to the side. She doesn't seem to be posing for a picture; just thinking. Her expression is almost forlorn, and she looks so deep in thought that I spent many minutes just staring at her and wondering, what is it that has captured her train of thought as such?

A really wonderful shot. I especially like the shadowing around her collar-bone. It might seem odd, but I think that her collar-bone is absolutely beautiful.

Great job.
