Hi, as requested, here is an indepth critique of your submission.
First Impression - the most important one: Lovely portrait, but a bit too much NI and a few stray hairs are distracting.
Composition: Works well, and is pretty strong.
Subject: Subject is clear and I love the eyes.
Technical (Color, focus, and light): Color: Seems natural, it might have a bit of a blue cast to it (very little).
Focus is sharp.
Lighting works well for you and is very flattering to her skin.
To grow its vote?: Neat image (or what ever noise reduction you used) seems a bit overdone. And voters are starting to not like that look.
Summary: Lovely portrait, scale back your efforts to hide noise (skin blemishes) and you'll do well.
Lovely composition and clarity...the angle does elongate her face a bit much, and the color seems just a tiny bit "off" on my monitor (which could very well be, well...my monitor!) but overall it's quite nice. She has mesmerizing eyes. :)
