The choice of DoF has made the back part of the ear appear to be a little OoF. I also find there is not much to look at altho the tittle goes well with the photo. Good luck and all the best in 2005. <6>

converting to B&W or a sepia type tone may have given this photo a little more impact. Looks like the lighting is a little harsh as well, like it was taken around noon time.

Fresh and exciting treatment of composition and detail. Terrific lighting. True photography wonderfully practiced.

Nice and crisp - perhaps cropping even closer would add a little to this. I do like the thought behind it though.
