This was way underated IMO, the simplicity is so absorbing. For me, the highlights|shadows make the shot, I think clouds would add something this image just doesn't need. Be proud......

Excellent clarity, and use of light. I assume the light is natural, it's hard to tell with these closeups. 6

The crop and focus are spot on. Great eyes. I think what hurts it is the conversion to BW left it kind of flat. I'd play with levels, curves and maybe some channel mixer in monotone, to really up the tonal range. The basics are definitely there. 6

amazing reflections in the eyes, good lighting, not sure I like the grainy look to it though.

Solo to the Ground ...

"Solo to the Ground ..." is a good entry into the Solo Challenge. Oh I am so excited that I got one of your image, especially one from the Angel series.

I really like the black and white choice, it really draws out our subject. The placement of the subject is good. I really like the image. It just feels like their might be something missing but I really can't put my finger on it, but then again maybe that is the point.

I really hope this challenge has inspired you hop back into swing of things so that we can see more of your creative shots!
