Thanks for all the comments! You guys are great and I am very happy with my placement. I have reviewed the comments and I plan to take the recommendations seriously and try to improve even further. Thank you!
I had hoped it would have ribboned as well, but as I looked through some of the great photos, I knew it wasn't possible. But thanks so much for the kind words and the vote!
I gave this a 10. It could ribbon but DPC voters are a strange crew.
There is something about this pic that keeps me looking at it! Very good job.
Thank you! I was hopeful it would do well and although not as well as I had hoped, I am happy with my placement. I have been working very hard to get better and your comment (and many others) has given me some momentum. Thanks.

classical style--well done! the placement of the shawl just slightly across her lips is perfect. The skin softening is "glamourous" (though inhibiting it on the eyes might work a bit better--or it might not :-)
Wow! Thank you VERY much! Didn't expect this photo to do as well as it did, although I hoped it would and I certainly appreciate this recognition...This photo is my second personal best of all time.

Very nice. Great tones and lighting. Nice dof and background bokeh. Love the contrasting softness of her cheek and harsh line of the shawl, and that she is looking away from us. Her expression is priceless. The whole attitude spells glamour, that she lives in, and by, glamour.
i quite like the simplicity of this and how it seems to fit the challenge so well - the look does it for this shot - not completely convinced with the focus (more on the nose than the eyes) - but I really like the shot nevertheless - 8
Yah! I was getting worried after the last handful of images I voted on. This is a nice glamour type shot. Good use of props, etc... Only thing I'm wishing was stronger is the focus on her eyes. Seems like the focal point missed a tad. Good luck in the challenge.
