This photo was taken with natural ilumination. The original was in colour.

Nice Portrait. 1. Eye Contact, 2. a hand is important. 3. the "v" of the blouse closes the image at the bottom -not chopped out. 4. A good zone range with Texture in both ends of the zone scale (hair and skin, like little freckles). 5. It is a portrait not a gimmick. 6. light. Since the left arm is somewhat cropped by the frame I would have done same on the other side for balance and symmetry (if I thought about it). . You could care less what I think.
