    What great composition and I love the contrast between light and shade. The only minor nitpic and I mean really minor nitpick is the definition of the bridge of the nose which on my monitor seems to blend into the face.

    But it is a gorgeous photo of a beuatiful lady.

    Very nicely presented. Just enough contrast in the eyes to balance the moodier tonal range in the rest of the image.

    Wow. Excellent shot. Good balance of light and dark, and the mood set by her expression is perfect. I agree with readingr about the nose, but that is a very minor nitpick. Great job!!!

    I love the subtle gradations across the phtograph, tonality is excellent -- I don't have problem with the nose so I suspect that is just a difference in monitors. Wonderful work.
