Entry comments

You made an outstanding picture. Great composition.

What I admire:
Choice of technique: use of 50mm, picture ratio 1:1, black and white
Use of straight lines and curves
Straight lines: horizontal - right forearm, diagonal - left forearm
Series of curves with different diameters: chin, lips, nose, eyes, forehead
Distribution of brightness (left upper corner) and darkness (right lower corner)
Background: adjusted to the brightness of the object
Area of highest sharpness

Your picture wakes up the viewerÂ´s thoughts and feelings.
Congratultions again
