Nice black and white. I agree with George, good composition, excellent lighting and the tear adds to the story behind the photo.

Monika, this is a lovely portrait of a lovely model. -Durr

You have some excellent portraits in your gallery, and this one surely is no exception. But there's one troubling feature in it that keeps nagging at me, and that's the bright object just to the right of the subject's face. My first question was, is it the arm of the armchair/sofa or is it her own arm? But aside from its identity, I think that what detracts somewhat from an otherwise very beautiful composition is simply the fact that the object is so bright. What are your thoughts? Am I missing something here? Am I being to finicky?

Excellent.

Very beautiful...well done.

very nice composition, light and her looks is lovely.

 

greetings

 

Excellent shot Monika! Congratulations! Vaios.

I can see now that it is her shoulder and arm and not the arm-rest of the sofa. (Someone must have put something in my coffee this morning.) It's just that the outer line seemed too perfectly straight. Anyway, knowing that it's part of her anatomy, I feel a lot better about keeping my eyes on her face, which I must reiterate, you've captured beautifully.

Looking better...closer...i just see a tear on her face...It is a tear?.Anyway...it is a great shot...i like it a lot.That`s way i came back.

I don't usually follow up what is new on PN in the portrait section, but by surfing around here I stumbled up to your work. It is amazing! Fantastic high quality photography.

This is top notch Monika! -Anthony
