Coming from the "Want Comments?" thread. Several things jump out at me in this photo. The eyes, while they have sensational catchlights seem unnaturally lightened, particularly the eye-whites. They may not be as it appears she is facing a very bright lightsource and the white could just be reflecting heavily, but it's detracting for me. The hindu mark on her forhead seems photoshopped in. I realize it's probably not, but something about it seems off. Is it a stick-on? Aren't they usually added with pencil? I would also clone out the tiny portion of the flower showing on the gown at the bottom of the frame. Lastly, her hair gets lost in your dark background. I wonder if a B/W conversion would mask some of these elements? |

I find the eyes really amazing. I love portraits and think this would have been a lot better if you would have got the head angled more and not directly at the camera. All in all it is a good shot and a keeper.
