Beautiful portrait. The girl has a good expression but I wish her lips hadn't looked as chapped. Some editing could maybe have made them look better. 7
This is a really nice photo that really jumps out at you.
There are two things that I think could improve this:
1) An extra light in front to give more detail and light in the eyes
2) The model's cracked lips and discolouration to the right of her mouth. Maybe this was intentional, but to me it seems a bit out of place.
Freckles are timeless. Like the look and the B&W conversion. I normally like image grain, but you don't have that, you got yerself noise in the upper left. I'd have ditched it with NI and kept the NI away from her face. 7
