wonderful anke @ available daylight

strong photo! i like the concept.

The "look" is 19th century while the composition is 21st century - I like that tension.

Leaving so much room is brave but works very well here - leaving room for thinking about her thoughts.

The lines are wonderful: her hand and fingers, her neck and arm and shoulder form a very harmonious undulating 'landscape'.

original both in presentation and composition

wonderful shoot

I agree.

For me the most atracttive point in your image is the frame and the treatment done,both excellent I haven't any doubt.Looking your work I'm thinking about the pose of the hand and it poor level focus...The hand's pose is fine for me,relaxed;I like it, as such us her look,because likes natural.About the level of focus (hand),I trying to imagine it into a DoF, and I'm not sure if the image will win in somehow from a aesthetic point... And for it,of course I would like to compare these two options,anyway your work displayed it's an excellent job.Best regards.PD the exposure was done very acurate! 

Really strong, the lines are perfection, the angle of her eye and elegance of her fingers and wrist. The tones are lovely. Only praise here, this shot really caught my eye!

Very nice dramatic capture. I like the lines and tones, and the way her eye is turned. The fingers add such a nice, soft dimension.

Despite a very large amount of negative space and a rather unconventional composition, this works very well indeed.  The curve of the neck and shoulder is very attractive as is the look on the visible part of the model's face.  The toning is also good.

Maybe I'd remove the very visible scratches on the right, they distract from the main subject a little.  However, that's easily fixed.  Overall this is a fine image.

Well done!

Cheers

This photo is really, really GREAT!

What a fine image!

Very nice composition. Beautiful photograph.

Great composition; I love the direction of her gaze leading into the photo. I love the tone and processing as well. Really beautiful work; I love it! Thank you for sharing. :)

A work of art, intense, meaningful, aesthetics, extraordinary beauty indeed. Your composition is bold, and the result is a gem. How I wish to have the talent to do things like this!!

This portrait put a spell on me. I come back again and again looking at for long times. Mesmerizing, haunting.

i love everything about this.
