the heavy dodging left you with a halo and no contrast in your face - feather that out more, and add the contrast back to your face and this is a cool shot - although I wonder if DPC would ever embrace it.
Very dynamic composition to this portrait, really like the subdued color contrast you went with. Face seems a little too greenish or flat or something.
I don't like the lighting nor the "color", but this is totally a subjective thing. However, I understand the effect, and as such a highly rated photo (just not for me). 7.
