Nice portrait. Focus could be a little better around the eyes..but it's hardly noticeable. Great work on bringing out her eyes. Great composition as well.

I like this capture of what looks to be a natural pose of the model. It seems to me that she glanced over to look at you just as you pressed the shutter. As such her eyes are turned to us and it is as if we are the ones caught looking. And indeed, the eyes are a lovely shade of blue. She is adorned with all sorts of interesting jewelry and decor. Lighting and skin tones on the subject are excellent. I do have one critique and that is don't be afraid to get even closer to your subject. Either a closer crop or a zoom in where the bottom half cuts off just below the silver bracelet would make a stronger visual impact. The reason? Her face, her eyes, the interesting jewelry on her wrist (expecially that beaded diamond patterned bracelet), and the Henna pattern on her hand would dominate the composition more.

I bet she gets great radio reception. Interesting garb, would love to see the whole outfit. Lighting nice. She's too beautiful for her eyeliner.

Okay I'm a sucker for goregous blue eyes. Beautiful shot, my only suggestion would be to clone out the strands of hair hanging to the left of her face.

Lol, the girl at the Bristol Rennaisance Fair. I took pictures of her as well, and also the other guy and girl working the Henna booth.

Nice shot, good luck in the challenge.
