 my little sister.... thanks for enduring my endless shooting.

i'm really happy with the way this came out actually. not even close to what i was originally going for but way better. and way harder. i'm extremely happy that this is advanced editing, otherwise there's no way this would be in here.

I like the use of light and shadow. Something looks wrong with her forehead. I can't fully put my finger on what, but as it is the top center of the photo it can be really distracting.

Oh, I love minimalist shots like this, where with only a few strokes of light, you convey the subject so well. Nicely done!

I like it... I would have loved to see some light reflections on the eyelashes and/or eyeballs. A small snoot could have made it.

Not sure I understand your title and it took me a while to understand what she was holding. Very nice silhouette though I'm sure it meets the challenge subject.

I like the lighting on the cross, but I'm not sure what's going on with the forehead, it's bothering me.
