 This is Lavi, it was taken with my 7D and a Samyang 35mm f1.4, I like how it came out, had to do a fair bit of tweaking in PS to get it how I like it

MAK, this is so sultry and hauntingly beautiful! When I saw it in the challenge, I actually thought it might be yours. It takes someone with your signature gift on portraits like this to ALWAYS pull it off! BRAVO!!!!!!!!

I like the softness of this.

I like it. I find the selective focus perhaps a tad too strong, particularly on her lips. While I like the Lawrence of Arabia hood (sorry, probably not the best definition) and the crop as it is leaves space for her to gaze through. But I feel a tigher crop, excluding the white background completely, would have made for a stronger image and enhanced the complementary tones of skin and fabric. But probably it's just me.

Admittedly a very interesting photo, yet the focus is a touch off and selective when giving serious consideration. Nice use of green as well.
