Comment by olddj:
great dof, nice color, small critique, IMO there appears to be a couple of small spots between eye and tip of bill that are too reflective/blown out, great capture overall, LOVED it

Not a bad shot per say but there are a couple of things that would make this shot sooo much better. 1. I would include her whole jaw, not cut of the tip like that, it just looks accidental. 2. I would use some other form of lighting. I assume you used the title "vouge" to imply this was intended as a high fashion shot. The lighting is way too harsh and is not flattering. 3. I would personally have chosen a cooler WB. I do like the sharpness in the eyes though and the intensity in the eyes so keep at this. Hope this helps in any way.

Good composition, nice detail. Could use some dodge and burn on the beak.
