I let the model to feel comfortable as much as possible. Just like she is home (actually it is her home ). I tried to make it simple to yield out the feeling of how the model and the photographer communicate ... at the right moment I took the shot. I believe this picture capture that moment very well, as I still remember that feeling and the atmosphere.

Thank you for your visit and I love to be straight critiqued

I like this but would prefer it in colour. Pretty girl.
Maybe a tad too dark though

Nice quiet moment. I would like to see some separation between her hair and the dark background if possible.

I actually like the shot just the way it is. If you were to lighten up the background maybe a TINY bit but thats all. I like the blending, it helps focus your attention on her and her face. It keeps your eyes on her and I like the effect. I like the oldish feel to it .. I'm a fan!

I agree with Joel. Hair blends in too much with the background. I like the B&W and the pose though.

Nice image and nice conversion but I agree with not enough separation. Additionally I find all the black space on the right distracting. I keep trying to find something in it and that draws me away from your very pretty model.

As request, here is the colour version and re-editing version. I also improved the brightness between hair and the background to give more details on both of pictures too. Hope you like them better.

Thank you for your comment. It is appreciated.

That looks alot better(b&w) but seems to be a little to bright on her cheek and the back of her arm.

I like the pose but it is a little dark. The last b/w one is better but I don't understand your white streaks!!! Maybe sepia would give an older feel to it.
