  Wow, Marvin! This is simply beautiful. Her expressio, her hair falling down around her face, the clouds, and the b&w are all stunning!

  Marvin, you have done it again! This is just awesome. Hmmm, where do I start... the composition is perfect. The lighting and perspective is just fantastic. And your post-processing work is the icing on this wonderful (soon to be finalist) image.
