Great picture, even though I don´t see much of magic or mystery in it. Congratulations on your top ten finish. |

Stunning imagery. C Novack most certainly nailed it. The thing that stood out the most to me (after ripping my gaze away from those eyes), was the perfect tonal range achieved with conversion. I'm certain the image would not have had the same power in colour. Great decision.
Congrats for the top 10 finish! |

The title and the eyes peeking out from the foliage are very definately bewitching. The lighting and contrast are excellent. The face is perfectly illuminated and it is the subject's eyes that hypnotizes the viewer. The woman can be seen in one or two ways. The first is that she is a magical being, a dryad or sprite, casting a powerful hold spell upon us as she peers out from her forested home. The second is that those eyes sometimes project a feeling to the viewer that we are the hunted - as if she is a wild animal (say a tiger) sizing up her prey. Composition of this photo is excellent. Well done. |

NIce post processing, catchlights are pretty bright but i'm being picky. YOur composition is strong as well with the leading lines of the leaves and stems pointing the viewer towards her face. |

I love the eyes, and I know you made them the central subject, because we're led directly to them when we look at your pic. An enchanting gaze if I ever saw one. I hope to see outtakes to see the color of these eyes. My favorite in this challenge. |

I like this shot a lot. The soft focus works well here. Her skin tones contrasts beautifully with the dark leaves around her. I also like how her face and hair fade smoothly into the darkness around her face. 8. |

Nice composition. I think i would have preffered the leaves without the DOF blur or gaussian. Nicely sharp on her eyes. 7 |

Reminds me of a young Barbara Streisand. Oh no I just dated my self as an old fart. Excellent DOF and I like the use of B&W in this shot excellent range of contrast. |

beautiful eyes...I wonder how much better this might have been if you kept the eye colour in in a selective desaturation...might have added to the mystery |
