Yeah, she's bellezza all right. Better get a new model, hombre ... you're cheating. :-)

Another great shot... Please give Kapan my regards. ;-)

This should have finished in the top 5 IMHO. But congrats on a strong finish anyway.

very dramatic neckline on her dress which fades nicely into the black background. I like her 3/4 profile. the hairband is a little distracting.

I think I recognize this model... ;-) Great pose and contrasting tones here. Ya know, the highlights are right on the edge of being blown, but because the blacks are so dark they actually work. Really nice crop - and I love her lips! Very strong entry.

A very nice portrait and good high contrast for me. Nice composition and framing where your model reminds me of a bust-type sculpture.

Excellent high contrast. I love her collar bone and neck. The shadow on the left shoulder is a tad distracting, but otherwise a stunning shot. 8

Someone who understands the use of contrast for drama. Bravo. Wish I could see a little catchlight in her eye though so there is a better connection with the model
