beautiful pic. soft skin. great lighting setup. Only the cut of the black garment (which is somewhat white and along her face) distracts a little.
BTW is she wearing contactn lenses?. 9

I think you did a beautiful job on this. The only thing I can think of that could be improved is the white squares reflected in her eyes but that is very minor.

Inspired by National Geographic? Very beautiful portrait photo. Her eyes just captivate me. The only suggestion is for the intial setup of the scarf. The edging looks too rough. Perhaps wrapping it inwards and having a folded soft edge would have helped. It doesn't take away from the photo, I am just being picky I guess.

Returning for comments.
A very smart portrait. The make-up is wisely understated and the somber expression adds to the harmony of the semi veiled subject. The lighting is just right. Hard to go wrong with such a lovely model. Bumping up.

Superb tone, lighting and mood in this portrait.
Very well done and well-deserving of a 10.
One of my favorites in this challenge.

This is a perfect portrait. Sharp focus with a quality of softness in the subject.

very startling eyes, and a very gorgeous shade of brown. under the rules though, you could have cloned out some of the red in the eyes, the slightly dark line the is evidence of contact lens's and possibly made the white of the eyes a bit whiter... might have given the subject matter of your title a bit more definition and prominence. still a lovely, well composed and taken image though. 7.

Nicely balanced, perfect skin and highlights. The background seems too light (imho) for the shot and the window reflection in her eyes was distracting, but I also know I couldn't come close to a shot like this. Very nice.

A similar picture to a past challenge entry, but I REALLY like the shot. The black veil and brown eyes/hair make for a very compelling image.
