Gorgeous photo!! The only thing that I could say to improve this is to tone down the vignette. It's just a tad too dark and harsh for me. But other than that, thumbs up!

This is a FANTASTIC photo! I love the dark vignette! It really frames the subject (who is gorgeous by the way) and draws the eyes right to her face. I am curious what your setting are for this photo as I would love to reproduce it with my own photos! What program do you use for editing?

Can't view the larger version as your permissions are set to private.

It's a decent crop. Only just getting a hint of the left eye leaves me wanting to see it though.

+1 on softening the vignette. It's too harsh and heavy for my taste.
