So nearly utterly fabulous as opposed to very good. I'm sure it was intentional to leave the face in shadow but for me I really do think that a bit of lightening there would've lifted it!
Still a 7 though (I'd love to know what lens you used.)
How charming. Some might want more light in the face but I like the subtlety of the back and side lighting. The bokeh colors are beautiful and dreamlike. I love those little chin whiskers. :~)
