Once again, terrific post processing. I love this style. I'm curious as to why you left the white strip on the left of the image. My first inclination would have been to crop that out (and I see several previous commenters felt the same) But I love creative cropping and compositions, and the rest of the image is processed with such care it that it leads me to believe that the white strip is left in for a purpose. When I try to cover up the white strip, it does seem to loose a bit. In any case, this is awesome work. :)
A wonderful portrait with beautiful light and clarity in the eyes. I love the expression that you captured. My inclination might be to crop out the vertical white strip on the left. Nice job on this.
