WOW! wonderful tones, this is just fantastic in bw. it gets a little dull in the bottom right corner, could use deeper shaddows there. but this is just simply wonderful!
Totally different to almost everything else in the challenge. A great portrait, for me, with fabulous lines leading towards the subject. Really good light, and excellent post-capture work.
This is outstanding B/W...the contrast and tone are just wonderful. I hope you're getting fair votes and not crazy stuff like "not a portrait, a candid" blah blah blah....This photo is a no brainer 10.
WOW!!! this one is great!! I think my favourite one in this challenge, at least until now. looks like out of a fashion magazine. definitely 10 points. deserves a ribbon.
I think the dodging around the subject is a good idea in this shot, to obviously highlight her abit, but it's applied abit too liberally here, as the rocks behind her look artificially lit, so try to be more subtle with it, a lower 'flow' percentage might help, around 3% or something and buil it up.
