Beautiful portrait. I'm hoping/guessing the eyebrows mean the lack of head hair is a fashion choice and not chemo. 8

This image needs much longer than a couple of seconds to take in. Maybe its because I, like many people have lost a loved one to that letter. This is a compelling image to look at and your model is saying so much with their eyes and pose. A faultless hi key image, a stunningly attractive model. I'm sure you will score well in this challenge but imho this should have gone in High Contrast IV (if it was taken within the dates). This has to be a real portrait (the C word again?) so I wish you all the best for the future.

Wow - beautiful, strong, emotional photo. I love the look on her face - it looks more like hope, intrigue, contempt - not fear or sadness. The C word is very dreaded but also very real for alot of people. Great job!
