Dreamy! Nice expression. Wish that either the wall were less of a textural feature or that there was more definition in the hair and face--just seems that the strength of the wall is fighting with the subject for attention.

Good soft lighting. i would have reduced the sharpness of the bricks a bit so as not to compete with the great facial expression. Focus and composition are very good. Bumping up.

Like your title. Given that this is a self portrait challenge, I hope ya shot a pic of yourself, which is actually better than what a few others have done. Nicely exposed and composed. A very literal and elegantly simple entry. Your choice of background may not be the most flattering however. I offer you a 6.

I might have upped the contrast a little bit more. Like the way you've cropped this

could use a little contrast, but i like it. I'm guessing you used the channel mixer to convert to BW? it looks like it's mostly the red channel. try boosingt the blue and green channels and drop the red a little. well done.
