This one shows her soft side - contrasts nicely with the brick background.

I like the "toughness" this image evokes. She seems to a competent woman who knows what she wants and how to get it.

I'm not sure I like the blown forehead, it contrasts too much with the dark hair. Another thing that pulls my attention away from the face is the sharpness of the blouse where the jacket is open seems a little too sharp and over white.

I agree - I love her expression but she does have a large forehead and the lighting was a bit harsh. : )

Love this, the angle really sets the mood, as well as her expression and the black and white. Really really well done.

agree with Kelli and the gothic feel starting to come thru, the focus seeming to be off slightly adds to that feeling for me
