This was before my time on DPC. It sounds silly, but the thing that really jumps out at me is that wisp of hair on the left side of the image, and the fuzzies around the hood. Nice little details that make a big difference.

I like these high contrast images you have going on here. They are very full of detail, something a lot of people miss when converting :) I, apparently, gave this a 6 during voting and that is a great thing from me :)

You'll probably get hammered for the high key lighting but I think it works. Makes for an interesting study in contrast and composition. I ranked this high and just wanted to let you know so before the contest ends. Thanks for entering this.

hehe, she makes me think of Cruella Devil from the 101 dalmatians hehe. Why is the eyes soo blurry? It wold have been more effetive to have it sharp. However, I really like the 3 frame division: white/face/black. good composition
