Ah, beautiful portrait! Not a single thing wrong with it, imo...the tones are right on, her expression is excellent, I even love the background. Good shot! Thanks!

Gorgeous shot. Something you would see in a magazine. Love the perfect focus on the eyes and the depth. 10

Great portrait. Hopefullly your details section contains conditions and post processing steps. The only thing I am not sure of is the hair. Seems like one group of strands might be enough, but that is a small comment. But, my guess is that this places well.

very pretty girl with beautiful dark eyes. I like the off center placement of the subject. the wisp of hair across her face doesn't look natural to me though. It looks too stiff.

wow lovely photo! i love the texture and hue on the subject... though would like to see the right half from her removed... and no not the right side of the woman but whats to the right of her... that being the very light patch ... i feel it draws too much attention away from the subject and IMHO would like to see her as the main subject without the light areas to the right.... however everything about the woman i love and wouldnt change a thing

Love the low-key tones and high contrast. She certainly looks like she's some native woman from one of the pacific islands, or S. America. 8

A very nice shot here I like the dark brooding color and her slightly off pose.
She is very well lit too.

What I don't like is the lack of detail on her face - almost looks like she is just about to start melting. not sure if this is makeup neat image or lighting but it looks very tonal and soft/

Wonderful model, lovely big eyes. The face seems a bit too Photoshopped though... the shadows around the face look as though too much dodging and burning has been carried out. Everything looks a bit too NeatImaged as well. The background to the right is a bit distracting... I think it would have worked better without the white patch. Great makeup and hair. The glossy lips are very effective. Black and white works well here. 8
