This is one of your best photographic captures, at least to my likings. The colours with their pale contrast of warm and cold intersect to produce a rather vivid image that comes almost alive to the watcher. Apart from the model who is astonishing (reminds me somehow Kate from "LOST"), the pose and the cropping makes the eye contact with the subject unavoidable and therefore absolutely marvelous. The tones are exactly as the should and her vivd eyes and dark hair give the contrast this photo needs. Its hard to say something else form the word "alive" when I look at it. Congratulations once more!!!
