This has to be my favorite so far. What an interesting expression she has. The photography is also well done with very pleasing tones and interesting composition.

Wide angle brings out the nose a little; while that's not a "sin", it seems to detract from this shot for me. Nice light!

this one would look better if she was smiling.

I think your lens was too short for this shot. I'm not sure what size honker she really has but this does not flatter it. Nice tonality though.

Pose is good. Highlight on forehead is harsh.

Beautiful b&w but there is a harsh light on the top left.

Like the pose/expression. Seems very dramatic and accurately named. Good tonal range of b&w. Well done!

Great job. Excellent composition.

Did you shoot this with a wide angle? You may want to try a short telephoto. It would look less distorted. Nice light on the model though. The highlight on the back ground should be more toward the center of the frame, fading darker toward the edges.
