This image actually has a real cool retro feel to it. Reminds me of b/w photography my father use to do. My biggest suggestion would be to lessen the negative space at the top and do this image in portrait orientation. 7 -danny |

Reminds me of an old foreign film Star. I like this very much. Great work. |

Yes a powerful, beautiful individual. The cigarette however draws all the attention in the composition. Is that what you're trying to say all that a woman is or could be lost to a nasty habit?

A beautiful image but what is propagandist about the idea of power and beauty in women? |

This one really works for me - nicely composed, lit, (lovely strong face) |

Love it. The lighting and dead black space make this quite stunning. |

Being ruined by a nasty cigarette? I'm not sure what your propaganda is going for... I like the photo, but am completely turned off by the cigarette. |

The camera angle and lighting combined with the expression and cigarette emphasize power over beauty. Very dramatic image. |

Where's the power? Where's the beauty? Where's the rest of the face? |

I don't see the propaganda element in it? except if it's pro-smoking propaganda? |

Well, I am not sure if your title was to evoke a response. While this woman has a great powerful look, the cigarette to me is a weakness. And a cigarette makes one anything but beautiful. So I am not sure what to make of this topically, though it is very well taken. The bit of smoke to the right center is a distraction (as is the whole cigarette). |
