Returning to make comments: This remindes me of old shots of Audrey Heburn and other glam film stars from the 1940's. Only two thinks kept me from giving this a 10. (1) the shine on the nose was slightly distracting. All that pancake makeup in the 40's keep the stars from showing any shine, and (2) there is a big white fleck of dust or fuzz along the bottom border. Aside from that, the "mysterious" placement of the face, the bit of hair obscuring the right eye, and the strong lighting all work well for me. Excellent work. 9

Very nice somber setting with great mood. being that it is the eyes, I would not have let the hair get in the way. Bumping up on good comp and very nice lighting.
Would have scored higher if I could have seen both eyes clearly , good picture though. Came back to this one , changed my mind , not seeing both eyes probably added something more to the picture , deserves a 9
a very lovely pose and composition - the shadow cast by the nose is a bit too much and so is the shininess which detracts from the eyes - still , very good
Beautiful shot, there were bound to be a lot of eye shots in this challenge, they are the most expressive feature, but you've done a great job of framing, and the model is really translating emotion well, great capture!
Beautiful image. I only have one nitpick...the title has our attention going to the eyes, but one of them is covered up by her hair. Still, the tones are lovely and the one eye that isn't covered by hair does draw my focus. Good work.
