beautiful image, thank you for taking the time to tell us how you did it - white make-up, who would have thought?
Well, obviously YOU, but I would have been wrestling in photoshop.
I admire your work. |

Wooo Nasti best score yet, and another 4th place AGAIN! Close though and one day you'll get a ribbon, I haven't seen anyone else here on DPC with a 6.2 average and no ribbons....

I used normal studio lighting with no filters, the girl was very blond and with fair skin, I used some close to white make up, white lipstick and white mascara also. Her hair was sprayed with some ice spray. The original photo was close to light itself. then I turned it into monotoe, duotone with a light tint of blue. sRGB+sharpen. I think a good thing for this photo was that I used a hair spot from the right top corner and it shines through her hair to make them look lighter.
thank you everyone for such nice comments, the girl is a real beauty, i think I will do more things with her in the future. |

Very Very nice indeed.
And again, just outside the ribbon....
But congrats on your 4th place...
Not a ribbon you won, but this must be worth a pannenkoek.... |

| First initial impression was the same as ursula's - reminded me of Barbra Streisand. Very nicely done shot. I could see this as an album cover. |

Beautiful shot, congratulations! She reminds me of Barbra Streisand somehow, much younger though (duh!). You do good work.

| I honestly see no "light color" here and I felt that the challenge was defined by this factor. In a B & W challenge, I would give this a 10!!!! I just feel that to do so right now would be unjust to the people who "met" the challenge. EDIT: after so much variance in the interpretation of the challenge, I am coming back through and this time judging on photogrpahic quality only, and not if it meets the challenge within reason. Bumping up. |

| Beautful image of a beautiful model, but the hair that partially blocks one eye has made it seem that they are not a matched pair, which in turn makes the shot seem out of balance, the darker eye draws the viewer's attention too much; I'd suggest a slight lightening of the exposed eye to bring it closer to the overall lightness of the picture. This should do well in the challenge. |

Wow. This is one to study. I wish I could create a portrait like this. The only problem I have with this is that we can't see her right eye. I think if she moved her hair slightly, the image would get a 10 vote from me. As it stands, a 9.
Hmm...on second thought, I rank this a 10, but I hope you take my advice in the future. For portraits like this, the eyes are the key. |

Beautiful model with really nice light on the face. A little overblown on the shoulder, but I didn't even notice until i went looking. The hair highlights work really well. And, for me, the contrast in her eyes makes this image captivating. Good luck in the challenge!
