Thank you both for your comments.

| A very engaging photo. For those saying the face is not sharp enough I have to ask why they feel that way. The key word being "feel". |

| I didn't vote in this challenge, so I saw this in the before and after side challenge. Quite a striking image, and I think you made and excellent decision to conver to B&W. Crazy how from the thumbnail that scarf absolutely disappears! |

| I'm really drawn to this portrait - even tho the eyes & face seem less focussed than the wrap |

| I think there are some issues with texture and contrast here- too much of the former and not enough of the latter.( especially above the head. A really beautiful, striking face- but I am lost in a see of woolly frazzle. Good luck |

| Beautiful lady. I like the scarf surrounding her face. The scarf wants to blend into background which I found curious; not really distracting, but a curiosity. Samandiriel's face is very nicely lit showing some considerable personality. Very lovely. |

| Beautiful composition & lighting. I like the way you have used lines directing to her face. I may have preferred a background with more OOF & contrast with the model. |

| I like this... the texture of the background as well as her hood and cape. Nice expression on her face, maybe a little to much highlight on the bridge of her nose. Good Job |

| I like that the fuzzyness almost blends in with the background, but I wish the face were sharper. |

| nice textures and use of contrast (texture of background and shawl vs smooth) to draw my eyes to her face. Lighten her face a bit and it would be perfect. |

| nice conversion, would like it more with out the nose as the focal point base on the light. I would love to see this with some dodging around the right eye. Well done. 7 |
