This is a great b&w photo. Excellent tones and clarity. Great composition and an interesting backdrop. The model has a great look. Well done!

I can find no connection between the model and the backdrop and the two don't mix very well. This picture does not suggest "COLD" to me. From the technical perspective I have no complaints nor any suggestions.

She certainly looks cold, not to mention out of place. Looks like a haggard old fishing boat in the wastes of New England. I wonder if she enjoys the smell of fish on the wind and and spray off the bow. (5)

Great portrait in an intertesting locale. I do not think her mood really fits th backdrop however IMHO.

Wow, you've really captured a great image her. This one tells a story, awsome. Her skin seems a little neat-imaged Love her eyes.

I like the organic against the linear artificial stuff. Too bad her coat wan't just the little bit lighter.

I have no idea what that thing is behind her, but I have to tell you that you have a gem of a model. Black and white is the perfect medium for her. Not to sure about the hand inside the coat. The picture looks so 1950ish. It's wonderful.

Cute photo, I love the glasses and the curls. I think it would have done even better if you cropped it to have just the girl in the photo....the lighter background is a bit distracting to me. It has nice strong tonal range.
