Thanks folks for the great comments and the amazing finish. My daughter Jack puts up with alot of crap and for that I owe her. She dosn't say much but I think inside she gets a bit of a thrill from seeing herself in so many different ways. As usual, I'm not trying to make any deep statement... producing a nice image that's received well is good enough.
Take care.

Holy Smokes!!! She is amazingly attractive. I love the great color saturation and sharp focus. Her makeup is excellent and the spikes/piercing look great on her. Wow .
Rudy, I don't know how I missed commenting on this yet, I am good for atleast 2 dozen of your views, I think this awesome, I love the almost porcelain colored skin. Your daughter is a pretty amazing model to have, she has some great looks and brings out many moods. Usually I congratulate you for a great finish, but this time its for a great daughter. :)
Way to go Rudy!!!
This is a beautiful portrait. Upon reading your comments re Jack it made me think of my own daughters. They do like to gripe but secretly I think they enjoy the experience. I think we have much in common my friend. Congrats once again !
Not only is it a fantastic shot, my camera shy, Goth-son walked by and I believe now has a crush. I think he might even pose for a portrait now...
Thanks,
noticed this excellent image and then noticed ur name ... this is getting boring .... you are just tooooooo good ...
congrats rudy on another amazing photograph & excellent idea ...
i wonder if ur over the thrill of getting blue ribbons yet?? .. i am looking forward to finding out, hopefully in this lifetime, wot it feels like!!!!!!
just noticed uv now got 8 of the buggars ...
i'm calling them buggars, coz for me they are so elusive ... thought my free study'd do well, but i't appears i'v still got no idea ... its come up from 3.9!!! to 4.9 ... i'm feeling disheartened ..
This was my favorite of all the entries and that which I scored the highest. A truly remarkable piece of work, well deserving of its placement. Congratulations my friend.
Awesome! In a Goth Glam sort of way. Technically it's great as well.
Crystal Clear. No background distractions. Vividly colorful, as they mesh
well together. Definitely not dull. It grabs a viewer's attention.
Fits theme well. Lighting is almost perfect. ( A tiny bit bright
on the left side of her jaw and cheek. A creative composition.
Top 10 entry for sure, and a probable ribbon winner.
Nailed it (excuse the pun)!! Fits the theme (pop culture. Great framing , great colour range. The one, sharp eye. I think this is the best of the batch. Spot on !! A 10
Great shot - magnificent eye...
I think I would have cropped it a little tighter on the right to make the eye less centered, but that's just a minor detail. 8 for now...
An excellent choice of suject for the challenge, as so many Pop cultures stem from it, Music, fashion, Hair, jewellery, and personal mood to fit the time....10
