Hello from the Critique club
An appealing image that meets the challenge
You could stage manage these sort of shots but what you have here is the sort of image that shows Anna in a way that you can easily imagine and remember her in your unfortunate separation from her. For that reason the dummy becomes acceptable though I do agree it would be nicer to have seen all her features without it. What is vital in any portrait is to get the eyes nice and sharply focused and that's exactly what you have done and your shallow DOF has placed all the emphasis on that eye which makes it a very effective image. I like the mono processing.
You have got some good critique from patches and I can understand what he is saying but I actually like it the way it is, but what really matters is that you have a very special image that will always mean so much to you so DPC and scores are really quite secondary.
Well done, thank you for your entry.
