Strong portrait, good one.
If I could I´d left more in her face to see and take out some hair. #433880

I think all the hair framing this face gives the portrait a great dramatic feel. Well done Maria!

Great Shot. I would like to see a companion shot with the hiar pulled out of the face, but the same look. The light in her eye is beautiful, the contrast of the texture between her hair and eyebrows really creates a great feeling. This is a very dramatic shot. Keep on going.

Striking !

I think it's great with the hair the shot looks both posed and natural at the same time ... and the liginging for the eye is superb #2698331

I really like it, too, and I like the hair. #2701290
