 Self Portrait in my make-shift studio.

Wonderful look. Got to love those eyes. Good hair highlights but the skin is a bit overexposed for my liking. Even so, good job overall.

With all the black and light tones the light you used leads to a very flat photo. You lack any shadow that would help this photo

returning for comments:
a great image and wisest in b/w because it adds that untouchable flavor to it. Good work.

The eyes do not look as crisply in focus as the strands of hair and the ear. The lighting of the face seems a little too flat and strong for my taste. The model looks just a little uncomfortable. Nice tilt of the head, placement, composition.

Your light is too flat. Try moving you light sorce 45 degrees to the side and it looks like she is flipping off the camera, which would be ok if her facial expression matched the gesture.

Soft focus on the eyes....in advanced editing theres no excuse for it! Nice picture regardless.
