I love the title, and the face is so engaging that it's almost sinister. The motion and energy of the background makes it feel as though she's about to be sucked right out of the frame -- back into the night. Great!

This is beautifully composed considering how hard it is to get away with having the subject right in the center of the photo. Well done!

I am not sure how this entry would have been shot in natural light (as given in the challenge description). Interested to see how this was accomplished.

Fabulous! Her expression, the location, the processing. I might have cropped a bit off either end to emphasize the face as the main subject.
