B&W works really well here, composition is great but the spot lights are a little distracting.

Really a great image and good placement. I gave this a high score but failed to comment during the challenge. It has excellent use of light and negative space. I love the off centering of her as well.

Hi Arnthor. This was one of my favourites from this challenge. It's amazing to have a photo score as well as this but not have it make your front page of best photos, which says a lot about your work!

You've got a great exposure on this shot, with just enough light spilt onto the background to help define her profile in the darkness. Your models skintones look well balanced and offers up a soft feel but with a nice crispness in the focus. Your use of lighting has added drama to the photo and you've worked in a fantastic crop.

If I was to pick a complaint on this the only thing that would spring to mind is I wish I could see a little more of her eye by having the light slightly lower but I'm really clutching at straws by saying that as this photo has worked really well. The only reason I say this is because her eyes are a beautiful shade of blue and is a real focal point in the image.

You have some amazing work in your portfolio and I'm sure it's only a matter of time until you pick up a ribbon or 10. Well done and best of luck with your future challenges.

Neil

I like the angle of light and the way it is glancing off her right cheek. I also like the hint of light on the background. Hair pulled back adds some "drama" as well. Nice shot.
