This is one of my many infrared images that I sweated with in the darkroom.

All comments appreciated.

Thanks

A very unusual creative portrait. The face and the expression are extremely well handled. To mention some problem areas, the highlights, as I am sure you realize, in some areas are too bright, even for a high key shot. The eyes particularly the right one need a little brightening and perhaps a highlight in each added for "punch". Some picture noise_grain is noticeable which may be irrelevant, if it is not present in the print. The infrared can make it more difficult to retain detail in a shot with very bright highlights or very dark shadows.

Post processing in digital is easier than in film but it is much more difficult to add any necessary finishing touches to a work that was originally done on film.

this is a beautiful shot. it is captivating (especially the models eyes) and creates a sense of calmness for myself. the only thing i would change would be to try and photshop that skinny long curved shadow near the bottom lefthand side out if possible. great photograph! :)

Really like it, very well done, cannot really find anything I would find fault with. Nice work.
