The composition is excellent - the sweep of her hair gives a beautiful curve as well as really cutting her off from the black space. And the rich black in her eyes really plays well against that background. Wonderfully evocative.
a nicely composed portrait, but pretty dull in the tones. good use of negative space, but the blacks could be darker and the light areas brighter to give this more impact.
Good lighting and subject placement. my only suggestion would have been to rub in a bit of corn starch under the eye and on the cheek. It would have made the trail of the tear stand out a lot more. But good none the less, 7!
