Some of you may remember I posted this a couple years back. I need much more practice in portraiture. The neck was all wrong in this - too long and skinny and no shadows. I've reworked her neck/face and am much happier with these results.
I like the silhouette, the attitude of the body and the setting...but....I'm not so sure about the face. This woman looks angry....at least to me, sorry!

I think it's beautiful Janice!
I was drawn to the hand for some reason. I really must click back and take another look. :)

You are so gifted, it takes my breath away
Very beautiful, Janice!
Well done!
Beautiful, I love the tones and light, an exquisite B / W. Very interesting and intriguing lady with this beautiful dress. Greetings.
Lovely, I can see the concentration on her face.
She is very beautiful--very 1930ish I think----Not that I was there ever. LOL
Stunning! MB
BTW: How are the cows in the freezing weather?
The shading is appealing and the black and white appearance is all that is necessary for the effect.
Nicely done
