Not sure if it has enough environment to meet challenge. I'll probabaly get nailed for the soft focus as well. I thought it worked for the concept of the picture though. But what the hell do I know.

I think the coloring hurt you a bit. This looks "dirty" to me. How was b&w? Did you try color? I'd be interested is seeing the shots you didn't use.

I love the sharpness of her eyelashes against the softness of her face. A true delight!

nothing to see of environment here; for a portrait too soft for my taste and lacking of contrast

Good close up and the black and white gives it a sophisticated feel.

Great tone and subject, and the bear really adds to the shot. Not really liking what I assume is his arm, kind of subtracts form the image.
