i like the space to the right here in comparison to the tighter crop on the left side. i would rather see either more or less of the nose here. it's very beautiful. lovely figure. it gives me a very cold chilly feeling though. and i know that's probably not what you intended. but i'd feel a little scared or hesitant around her as she appears here. ... (hesitant. ha ha. that came out before i thought about it)

So extreamly soft. The pure white background is perfect for this shot. Everything looks so natural, you really captured female beauty at its best.

dAv3 is very selective on what it wants to appear in my devwatch and what it doesn't. This didn't come up, I just walked to your page accidentaly 
And now i am going to critique.
Looking at it now, the big version, i think it would work even better if you cropped around the other showlder, it seems to be much better devined against the wall. (Unless you meant it to blend in
AND this is one of those comments you expected, i think you should have cropped to get rid of the shadow from the nose (even if after you shot it)

Im really liking the lighting, as usual. The composition im liking a lot, somewhat mysterious.
it's beautiful just like teh first version was....
u have captured a beautiful neck. ur original crop was tighter though wasn't it? i think it worked better that way. maybe

You know something ? I was going to suggest this crop to you ... but I thought I'd just not say anything. WOW, I sometimes find it amazing how we think the same
This is a superb composition. There is one thing I'm trying to get a bit used to here though. And I'm only suggesting this for possible future consideration. If you had your VP-1 on the main source, I think I would knock the setting down one notch to the the highlight on the right aren't as bright as they are. That's not to say the tones are good here. I am just wondering if maybe the tones would be just a bit easier on MY eye if they weren't so spread apart.
Still, this is an amazing image, and it would appear that your new toy is fast becoming an extension of your eye. Wicked job Kev!!

Thanks for the great comment. I'll play around with the raw file to see what it looks like with more even tones. I love them raw files!
