My most humble apologies to those who took offense.

Judy, this should have been top ten. In my opinion this is your best picture to date. Nice work.

Judy - I really think this is one of the much better entries in the challenge - a natural portrait, with a great use of glasses as a focal point. Possibly a tiny bit oversharpened but I am just nitpicking. Oh, and I can see those great eyes with no issue!

Lovely (self portrait, yes?). This could easily be an eyeglasses advertisement. I know this is fairly straightforward, but I think it is my challenge favorite.
