I think this is lovely - one of the better portraits in the challenge. The high key lighting is used to great effect here.

Light is great, love the high-key here. Focus - perfect. Shallow depth works well. However, that reflection/the shape of it/the eyes, is unnerving. I can see how you could have gotten that with two rectangular softboxes, - really, it doesn't matter how, it is weird. I'd have taken another one, or played down the vertical line in the eyes. But that's just me. Great photo, nevertheless.

Maybe a tad to light. Or it may be my screen.

nice color and focus on the eyes, not sure about the blown out look otherwise

Love her eyes. Very sharp picture. I wouldn't have used so much light though. But if you were looking for a very bright white picture then you got it :D

Over-exposed maybe, but intended and you pushed the limit well.
