I like the negative and postive spaces presented,light on dark is good a touch more detail at the top of the head would be good

i know what you are trying to do in this shot, but in all honesty it looks more like you are lifting youre hair than pulling it. picture quality wise is good.

Great composition and contrast, but too static to express extreme emotions (6)
