This is so brilliant and smart, I'm not surprised about the tepid score. In my book this should have been in the top 10.

What a difference the conversion to black and white makes. Suddenly the warmth is gone from your cheeks, and the subtle shades of expression become more stark. Thoughtful and maybe a little tense turns to a bleaker emotion. The additional softness of blur seems to seed some doubt that we'll ever be certain. Ambiguity goes well with art.

I agree. The blur helps to deliver the feeling.

This works on several levels. I like the nostalgia - the dress has an almost 50's sense with the short sleeves and plaid. Yet the darker eye makeup harkens more to the 60's and pulls our eye to your face. Love the highlights and bright whites.
