Beautiful scene well photographed. Sepia tone works very well for this. I like how sharp the focus is too. Fine work.

I really love this shot. It seems just a bit oversharpened around the eyes and mouth, so it might have looked better in softer focus, but it's absolutely stunning as it is. Great job!

Lighting: The lighting is wonderful, but I would have liked to see more life in her eyes, that can be provided by a catchlight.
Pose: Sorry, with the pupils of her eyes covered by her eyelids she looks more asleep than posed. A beautiful model in a good composition, but the eyes are killing it for me.
Background: Using her hair as a background to frame her face is fabulous.

My favorite composition of the challenge. Unfortunately, the light is a bit too flat for my taste, and it seems a little grainy. Maybe you had to crop too much? Still one of my top picks, but could've been a 10 with very little effort. Nice job!
