Beautiful portrait. Wonderful light and I loved the strangeness of the pose and props. I thought this may have been the work of kiwiness :)

interesting treatment on the model, the shallow DOF distracts a little. nose is too OOF making it appear bigger.

I don't like the way the lace is chopped off on the topmost curve. It is just too sudden of a stop. That being said... Perfect lighting, wonderful catchlights, and a very interesting curvy pose lend a lot of interest. :)

Bella si! Questa è straordinaria. I'd use it for product advertising.

An extremely provocative image.....who is she? What is she up to? Very thought-provoking and pleasing to the eye. 8

The more I look at this image, the more I like it.

The only gripe I really have is, especially with portraits, you are tending to over amp your whites, and your blacks are dipping into the abyss. Therefore, your 18% grey rule is lacking.

However, it doesn't kill me.

Awsome image.

Congrats.

excellent use of focus to draw the eye (to the eye), and great composition makes it all flow so nice

Well controlled B&W. Interesting addition to the portrait, but why? Maybe in a sorta haute couture way where you just do it because it's weird. I can go for that. 8

Wonderful composition, however I think the face is almost *too* white, I'd like to see a touch more detail around the fingertips, and around the facial features.
