    I like this shot and the simplicity of it...not as manipulated as the other images you've posted...but i like that. the only things I might change a little took like 30 seconds...cropped in tighter(the necklace took away from the mystery of the mask made her just a normal person rather than a character in a story---does that make sense?) and I slid the midtones levels arrow towards the left a bit(it brought out quite abit of detail in her eye and socket area)
    and unsharp masked it...

    I am REALLy enjoying your creativity. Are you like a theatre student...how do you have access to such wonderful materials...maybe you don't--- could be I'm unimaginative

    Love the detail in the woman, those eyes WOW!

    Lose the mask!, she is beautiful enough!, focus on here eyes the black and white makes them look so deep.

    I like the contrast between the relaxed face/beautiful eyes and tense/anger?/concentration of the mask.

    I really like this image. Nat's crop is a very nice improvement. The goal here is to focus on the details in the face. The initial image distracts by showing the neck.

    The most important thing here is that you captured the eyes nicely. They are incredibly sharp and the light reflects well. There is a texture to this photo, which I think gives it a unique feel. Good work.
