Lovely, Dylan. Well done. Maybe hands position kept the score down? Nails take attention from the more interesting and attractive points.

Good use of a shallow DOF.

I really like this. If I had to complain about anything, it would be about the slightly out-of-focus hand. But I do like this a lot.

Hmm ... not sure how I'm feeling about this. You have an interesting model. You've resisted the temptation to turn her skin to plastic. Fingernails raise all kinds of questions. And her oriental appeanance creates some tension with your title.All that's good in my book. This may be a case where a centered composition might have been better. It looks a little off balance in this one.

When you put a face right in front, and the focus is on the eyes, im sorry but there needs to be better focus everywhere. The out of focus hand and thumb is too distracting. But its still a super duper contender. GL/

great shot, it would have been meter if the hand on the right handside of the picture was infocus, but all together great shot 7

No offense, but those nails are very distracting from her face. Lovely eyes. I like the crop and composition.
