Great shot.

Only thing I noticed from a glance was the top of her hair was ever so slightly chopped off. Very picky, I know. Maybe a very little amount of room above her head could have been there.

I'd also like to see the colour version.

Is this cropped or was this pretty much SOOC?

it wasn't cropped at all- just converted to black and white and made it pop a little bit =)

I like it. Very good. BTW I was being very picky. I'm not usually. But I looked at it and didn't really have anything to say other than "good job" but you wouldn't have posted in crtique if you didn't want to hear something about it.


Was this the 50mm?

I agree -- there's really nothing one can say other than: GREAT JOB!

Nice image of a killer model.

I'd probably crop the bottom off some, her hand, and the blown out area next to it takes away from the shot in my opinion.
