I finally stuck to the minimal editing I've been trying to... I mean it was still a fair amount of editing but little changes keeping the original fairly intact... even the background!
Beautiful and simple, a lovely portrait... focus kind of looks like it's at the ear, as opposed to the eye for example.. but a beautiful photo regardless.
What a gorgeous face. Your lips and eyes are model material. I love how the hair on the back of your neck creates a fringe - with some almost geometry against the curv of your shape. Great tones. I'm a huge fan of profiles. The lighting is spot on!
