I'm completely missing the 'diagonal' connection here, so I have to vote this down a bit. Composition is nice, but I'd like to have seen more from her eyes - they're a bit lost. There's nice modeling on her face & would have come out more with a boost in contrast - I know that's more a matter of personal taste, tho'. Iit's easy to critique to death when you're looking for it, but I do like this shot overall! Good luck!

I would have like to have seen you light the subjects face more, it seems to shadowed. Otherwise great pic.

I really like the natural quality of the picture, the sepia tone adds a true richness. Except for lipstick & some minor eye makeup the model seems to be very natural. A nice capture.

I just can't see a diagonal axis as the major compositional thrust, sorry, 2

Comment by fotojunkie:
Amanda's hair is the obvious subject here. I don't get "Light on White", would be a great portrait if her face were a bit more lit.

2 / 3 Creativity - Ordinary/Common = 0.
1 / 3 Subject - Subject follow the challenge theme?
2 / 2 Technical - Focus, lighting, etc.
0 / 2 WOW - The hard to get points.
5 /10 Score - I rarely give out 9's & 10's.
