hey man, you got robbed here. i don't really care for most of the top 10 shots in this challenge, because many of them don't show character. your's does and it also shows an attitude. i agree with some comments tho that the eyes are a tad soft and need a catchlight, but otherwise it's nicely done and should of deserved top 10.
greets :) chris |

Still, as I said, an interesting and provocative shot, so I think it stands out in the challenge. |
To you and all the comments bellow regarding the focus:
I don't see any problem with it. Additionally, I didn't do it on the forehead but on her eyes. The focus came out exactly the way I wanted, sharp on her eyes / mouth and soft on her hair / ears. |

| Nice shot in terms of composition in lighting. The focus is off unfortunately. (Strangely the good focus is on her forehead) |

| Just not fair. Her eyes and lips are so stunning, that it is impossible to take a bad shot of her ;0) Nice portrait of a gorgeous woman. I hope she does modeling, because she needs too! |

I had to look it up: A femme fatale is a sensuous, alluring woman who often leads men into danger ...
Well, that is this femme in spades. Love it. I don't know if you planned the slight blue color case, but it either works or doesn't distract. I haven't decided. |

Reminds me of shots by  TOY. The thing I noticed first is the focus seems a little soft on the eyes. You've got a beautiful model, you want those eyes to sparkle. |

| I wish the focus was sharper. |

| Nice skin tones with good lighting. Though some of her hairs are adding to the composition but I didn't like her flat shoulders in the composition. |
|
|

| The shoulders seem to be out of focus when compared to the face. I think that if this were advance you could probably correct that a bit by burning the bottom edges a little, but in basic it really draws my attention away from the face. |

| Interesting pose, makeup and composition. Dont like the overhead shadows so much, would've helped to have a reflector or more fill under her chin. |

| Love the lighting, expression, framing! Think it could of used a bit more light in the eyes as they seem a bit shadowed? Excellent though well done |
