This was one of my fav's from the challenge. IMO it should have scored far higher. Good to see you back again Gary.

Interesting work and my challenge favorite, I'm sorry this didn't make the front page, but I'm happy to have been one of your "10s".

PS: Just realized this was my 5,000th comment! I'm glad it was on a photo I like.

great combination of reflections and portrait. the seduction genre doesn't work for me, though. Too limiting. 7

An astounding depiction. So cold, yet...

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: I wish I could do work like this! My model work is a bit dull and over-polished compared to this. The colours of the reflections, her pose, the intense eyes, the slightly soft focus, the grain - they all exude confidence in your work. Great stuff.

Critical stuff: The framing / cropping on the left.... perhaps a bit more would be better, here, by nearly catching all of her, the slight clipping draws the eye away from where it belongs.

Overall: Superb work.

I love this. It reminds me of something for a high fashion magazine. :) the reflections in the window add to the shot. post-processing is great! really nice job! 8

Your model is beautiful! Just love the composition -- the reflections really make this image for me -- creating a sense of separation between the model and the viewer. Almost creates the voyeuristic feel for the viewer, like we're looking in at something we shouldn't.
