i like it.

the chopped chin is a bit of an issue, but i actually don't mind the curl's shadow on the right. in a picture that otherwise is so perfect as to be plain, it adds that point of interest to draw the eye.

where others may see this 'distraction' as a problem, in this case the face is so perfectly plain (physically, technically and emotionally that it benefits from a little 'distraction'. If it weren;t for the shadow it would just be another plain high key face.

if anything for me, the more i look at it, i don't like the width of the crop. it stretches her face. i would probably keep the height constant and add in a fat chunk of space to the left of the image.
