I was going for a soft, high key effect which would emphasize her eyes and bring out the pink. The scarf set was paler than I wanted, but still pink, and my model was in a bad mood...so I worked with what I had.
We'll see how the viewers like the effect.

Beautiful high key portrait.
I love the bright colors. Gives the feeling of cld and still makes the heart warm.
The girl's expression give the temperature away. She loks like she's freezing and can hardly wait for you to quit playing around ;-)
And still you got a wonderful and highly underrated (IMO) photo for this challenge!
While there are some tones missing, I will attribute the effect as intentional. The image does have charm and the pink understatement works great. 7 on intial first pass.
This is a very nice shot. The angle was just a little too much. It makes the eye furthest from the camera look a little strange. Otherwise I like the treatment, etc.
