Awesome expression on her face and I love the light in and clarity of her eyes!

Here is my shot. This is my first assignment entry. I'll put my other contesting ones up in the share your shots forum to avoid cluttering this post.

I took this in colour and then used lightroom (first time, this is going to take some learning) and made it B&W, then played with the tone variation until I was happy.

I had such a hard time choosing which photo to submit to this. I've chosen this one because of the mood, the feeling, the passion, I am a firm believer of looking at a Photograph and feeling the story it's telling. So here it is my entry this week - Shine on me ...
