This is my very first submission to DP Challenge!
This photo was taken at my home on April 10th, 2011.
I used a strobe to the left of the model, a constant 650 watt light to the right, and a small worklight to light her hair.

Despite the fact that I failed to check my camera's date setting, and got disqualified, I want to thank everyone for their interest in my first submission! |

lots of interest for such a simple shot. I like the eyeshadow, and the hard edges of her face. There's so many strong shapes when presented on black like this. I think I'd like to see the lower bit cropped a bit more, just above her ear, to emphasize outline even more. |

The background is slightly speckled which is distracting from the portrait. I would've cropped out more of the top as well. |

A little too much space at the top in my opinion. Also the background isn't as well lit as it could be. |

very nice illusion; good sharpness and lighting. Background migt be better in pure black. |
