I like this shot and the lighting. 2 things

1) next time have her take a few steps forward. She is competing with the background. A nice blur would look great on this. Even if you faked it a bit now.

2). I am immediately drawn the the eye that is on the shadow side. It is the shadow side but her eye is just as bring as the eye on the other side.

Again, I think it's a great image and lovely young lady. You asked for cc. I hope her concert was awesome!

She's very beautiful. I like the photo. I agree about her stepping away from the background a little to get a little blur in it. Other than that I like it as it is. Good work.

Beautiful, was this natural light? or did you use any fill flash?

Is there a reason why you used f8? I would have opened up two stops to f4, and dropped your ISO two stops as well. This would also help with blurring out the background a little. Nice picture. Those eyes are amazing.

Thanks no the only reason i used f8 is that the helios lens seems to over expose an image by about 2 stops on my eos the iso was set to automatic as it was only the second time id had this lens on the camera

I agree with the exif data. I would have shot at ISO 100, wide open, and possibly around 1/100th give or take. It's a nice shot regardless, however!
