This is so striking; I'm amazed this didn't place much higher.

Love the eyes and the smooth skin. Not quite sure what to think of this negative space on the right. I guess it's pretty unconventional portrait in landscape orientation, that's why. In the end I'm liking it.

Although some of the highlights are a tad harsh, this striking portrait is one of my favorites of the April free study. Nice separation from background, excellend detail, and a subject whose eyes and perfectly ambiguous expression highten our level of interes.

An outstanding black and white image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it has significant impact being richly colored with excellant detail. This image would have worked as a black and white as well. A perfect demonstration of the power of properly controlled light and focus. A top ten image and a very strong contender for a ribbon. Well done.

This photo succeeds because it isn't of a perfect model, who isn't perfectly made up, but rather is well composed, lit, shot, prepared and gives me an emotional sense of who the person is. So well done, I hope it ribbons.
