The lighting on this portrait is exquisite! Most portraits are made with too soft lighting, showing no character in the face. But your photo captures the three-dimensional quality of Marijaama's face. The lighting is almost Karsh-like.

I also think the posing and expression contribute to the image by implying strength and a regal nature.

Very well done.
