I am not seeing very much detail on my screen. Perhaps a slitghtly longer exposure time would help add some more detail. The title suggests that you were going for a 'glow' look. Perhaps a uniform gaussian blur would provide such a glow?
Interesting idea and nice painterly feel. However, I'm not fond of the grainyness of the hair. Also, I think you could have made the lightest parts lighter using curves (not levels). This would have added contrast without loosing the overall low-key effect.
Uh-oh. . .I hope its just my monitor (which is much darker here at work than my home monitor), but all I see is black. No photo. I'll check this again when I get home.
You may get comments that it is too dark. I've been adjusting my monitor brightness for the voting in this competition,(so I see the glow) but I figure it may not occur to many to do so.
Maybe it's just my screen that's too dark (I'm at my office) but all I can see is black with a slighly lighter than dark blob in the top half. Oh wait... I turned off my lights and I can now see the silhouette of a woman... It could still have been brighter but I'll give it a 7 for creativity.
