This semi-profile portrait reminds me of cameo jewerly, it has a very old and wise feel to it.

Gives me a sense of vunerability.

Good light. I think I'd like her arm covered...slightly distracting

I feel this needs just a little highlighting to set off the darkness. May be my monitor but looks a shade underexposed.

Very nice soft light on her face. I like that we can see both eyes, although the near side of her face is very shadowed. I like the touch of light on her cheek, too. Wonderful job keeping shadow detail in her hair. Her bare arm in the lower right hand corner is distracting to me. It would have been better to cover it. I think that a tighter crop, with a not so centered compostiion woould be stronger; I would take off some of the spacwe above and to the left of her. WIthout the basic editing restrictions, I would suggest burning down her chest a little, it is brighter than her face. Although I like the lines of her neckline, covering more of the skin on her chest would make the face a stronger part of the image. 7 from me.
