This is an interesting picture, but I do not see how this fits with the challenge, besides the title. I do like how you captured her eyes.

I have never seen a gypsy look like this before. The colours are warm adn details in teh background are clear. I think that the look may hinder you as most people have a different image of a gypsy than you are depicting.
