The softness suits this...a little bit glamorous, but also with a hint of vulnerability showing through.

Love your expression :) The thing that struck me right off was the smudge above your right arm. I love the tones here!!!!

Nawwwwww. . . I for sure won't get sick of you if you keep posting pretty pictures like this for 30 days :)

I like the soft dreaminess of the pose and the processing. It really gives it a glamorous look. You would be great at doing Glamour Shots for people!

Comment by Louis:
Very beautifully executed, in terms of light, tonal range, pose, composition, and much else. In your processing work, I think I see clipping, areas where the detail has been lost and replaced by highlight or shadow areas that show up as poorly delineated gradients mostly black or white. This is not necessarily bad, but immediately noticeable. In fact, it gives it a certain uniqueness to the composition and again reminds me of a kind of vintage Frankish postcard, especially with the clothes and makeup. Nice.

I like the light and colour but feel the eyes look more dopey than sleepy.
