Very fine, sensitive portrait. I like the lighting and how she fills the frame. It feels casual and comfortable. I also like how the title plays off her downward glance.

This photo, for some reason, looks like a work in progress. I believe it's the negative space of the upper left corner and black hair. The imperfections are what makes this so compelling.

closed eyes are perfect for this verse.

and mariuca is right. the face is Biblical, in the medieval/renaissance sense.

Such a simple yet powerful portrait, nothing special, just young life.

Very pensive portraiture, the monotone works well for this.
