Beautifully composed. The eyes are the once-upon-a-time; the face fills in the rest.

Wonderful image and very close to manny kind of images, I find it a bit too tightly framed- maybe a little bit of background or surroundings would have made your composition stronger- just my opinion otherwise its nice work

An eight from me. I love the character in her face. Would be a 9 if the tip of the nose were in focus. Good stuff.

Nice shot Ben. You have captured a special facial expression here. The composition is really nice and you are forced to look straight at her eyes. The DOF is very narrow though and I would have preferred it a bit deeper - her nose and chin are soft and looks a little out of place against the textured and aged skin on the cheeks. Not sure what happened between the right (as wee look at it) eye and the hair / ear - there is a very abrupt change from in focus to OOF.
Overall a nice shot and I hope you do well.

Awesome job n the eyes! Looks more realistic than most of the entries. I must learn how to accomplish the reflection much like you have. Refreshing to see an without a veil. Good luck
