Wow - nice portraiture! (If that's a word!) I love that the face is crisp and sharp from the tip of her nose back to her eyes (many get one and not the other), and then the focus fades away. Very pleasing backlighting.
The only thing that's a bit off is that her left eye is shadowed more than her right, which unbalances her eyes, just a bit.
lovely portrait. nice strong lighting. My opinion though, I feel the actual portrait is so strong, it kinda takes away from the bokeh of the image,.. still, well worth an 8.. well done.
stunning! skin tones and crisp focus are superb...love the depth of field...not a great deal of bokeh here, but I love this...love the backlighting and the way the eyes have you spellbound...wonderful 9
