Comment by Tranquil:
Well, you picked the right conditions to go out and shoot this. The quality of light seems very good and the blue cast is effective. I think you may have gon slightly overboard on the dodging and burning, but it is a very well done shot. THere seems to be some "jaggies" and artifacts, so I would have a second look at how you are compressing your images. If you need help in doing so, feel free to PM me.

This should be an album cover. One of my top 3 favorites in the challenge.

v. coole. I like it. a little harsh on the dodging around the model, but the concept is strong enough and the scene cool enough that I don't really care about that. Centred composition was absolutely the right choice here in my opinion.
