Nice pose, good focus and lighting. I like the almost white background, isolates the model very well, especially with the black to the left. Good job.

It's only been a week since I last saw her face gracing the top of the DPC page but after a few days I was quickly feeling N O S T A L G I C in hope of seeing it again.

Wow...not really sure what I can add that the 56 comments haven't already mentioned.
Definately high contrast. whites are white and blacks are black. Love the lighting on the background, I think it adds to the shot in my opinion.
The focus seems a tad soft, but with the feeling of the photo, I don't think that hurts this shot at all.
Her face seems blotchy. Not sure if this is editing, or lighting, or what, but seems to have some un uniform tones on her face.
Can't really see much of the flowers except the color part, but they do look good. I think maybe the whites there are a bit too white, but that's just my opinion. I'd like to see more detail in the flowers.
Overall an excellent image and not really much to improve on here.
Congrats on the placing! ~Heather~

hey manny! I thought you weren't going to enter??? Hehehehehe! The image is great, simple yet powerful. What gave it away? It's your title - the text specifically :0

I like the image, though I find the flowers and the shirt to be very distracting because of the blown highlights.
