Again the eyes which were both in focus and clear drew me in. Minimal framing with locks of hair and hands worked well for me and a good blend of light and shadows highlighting the face even more was done very well.

This was another perfect shot with both eyes in focus, which is important aspect of a portrait in my opinion. Good composition with no distracting background, a little peak around on the foreground but not distracting at all. Wonderful tones, highlights and shadows.

Absolutely gorgeous. The photo draws you in with those piercing eyes that are both in focus. Beautiful composition with no distracting background or distracting objects in front of the face. A classic portrait with a little twist around the neck. The black and white tones are beautiful as well, very vivid.

PLEASE READ BRIEF FIRST!! I am looking for Black & White only, female portraits anywhere from the waist up and both eyes have to be clearly visible. So no profile views and be careful with those big droopy hats.
