Greetings from the Critique Club:
This will be a short critique, because I think you achieved what you wanted with this image and it works well.
The only observation I'll make is that a viewer will look into the eyes of the subject first, and it is unsettling to have one pupil missing. It gives something of a vacuous look, which I'm not sure you want to have happen, especially with that complementary title.
That said, continue doing the good work you are doing. |

Great high contrast done in sepia. Your talent is growing. |

To me there are some good contrast areas (especially around the eye), but other areas seem very similar in color (hair, shirt). Nice portrait though. |

Nice portrait shot, although her mouth seems a little awkward. Seems alittle overexposed. 8. |

I've seen your other pictures of her, which are terrific, but I don't think this one showcases your talent as a photographer or hers as a subject. The pupil-less eye covered by her hair has an undead, zombie like look to it and her open mouth expression is also not a complementary expression. I do like the toning on the image, but not much else. |

I like the glam sense this has. The use of sepia was a smart move. Nice use of contrast for sure. |

When she would have looked straight into the camera it might have been an 8 or 9. Now she's looking away and it makes it feel a bit unpersonal. 7 |

I think I've seen this model before... ;-) She really is beautiful and I think you've captured another good moment. Wasn't sure I liked the crop at first, but it's grown on me. I really like the tones of the shot. Nice job. |

a nice high contrast portrait. many I'm seeing are not true high contrast. This definitely qualifies. 9 |

The contrast in this shot is amazing. You nailed it. AND her look .... bet you get a bunch of views on this one. GREAT JOB |

Nice lighting, good contrast, so meets challenge well. Facial expression of the model seems a bit odd...with her looking so off to the side, her hair covers her left eye..making it unappealing. |

Love the tint on this. Very nice highlights also. Wanted to see her other eye as the one stands out so much. Good work |

Your title and picture combine together with simplicity yet stunning beauty. The look she gives is intriguing and leaves me to wonder what is on her mind. Wonderful image.. I love it! |

IMO if you had pulled the contrast back (-20) just enough to bring the lips back into image the remainder would have looked after itself.....8 |

Very nice portrait, however I think it would have been even better if we were able to see her left pupil rather than it being hidden behind her hair. |
