This didn't turn out quite like I had imagined, I think the cellar was too dark to make a good portrait. I know this will not score high, but... Live and Learn :o)
The title seems wrong for this shot somehow. It seems to me that she's looking at the few meager belongings she possesses, which fits the theme perfectly. The tones and light here are very evocative. Painterly and beautiful. I hope you do well in the challenge -- good luck! 9
I really like the high contrast. The lighting is very appealing. There does seem to be something strange about the woman -- she looks suspiciously young and well-groomed. I didn't take that into account when scoring because I knew I could be wrong.
