the eyes are beautiful, I would have liked to see more contrast here. The face is a tad over exposed, so a high key b/w conversion would have been awesome. good job.
Looks like a great capture, but the processing (specifically the noise reduction) is too heavy handed for me. I would have much preferred to see the whole image with that same level of grain I can see in spots like the lower right. Of course, this is DPC, so it will probably score better this way.
wow!!!! stunning eyes and a really nice capture...only distraction is that little bit of something on her left nostril which could have been cloned out...I think the b and w conversion is great...perhaps a tighter crop is worth trying 8
