Beautiful portrait. The detail is superb and your B&W convertion is excellent. Wonderful B&W that looks like it's a real print. I know you'd be limited with what you can do with Basic Editing, but I think if you are processing it again, introducing a hint of grey to the collar would help balance the tones even more. Right now when you are looking at her eyes, you are aware of the collar.

Great portrait! Sharp focus - the eyes draw you in.
Just a tad much shadow under the eyes - white collar is a bit harsh.

I bet she has gorgeous color eyes. The collar is over-exposed. But you already knew that.

The colors and patterns of the reflections in the water here are glorious, like the ducks as well.

Beautiful water ripples and the colours is just superb. I love the green - yellow colour split. The birds are really nicely exposed (good deail in feathers). the only thing that throws me off is the blurr bottom part. If cropped off could lead to more dinamic composition.
