What a great portrait. I would back off the contrast slightly for a slightly softer look, but this is your work, and it is well done!

Nice snap. Too much contrast and other than what you tell us, no sense of environment.

Thanks for commenting Bill. Not all portraits have a sense of environment nor are meant to have. At times it's all in the face IMHO.

In that case, it is all about the eyes - focus, sharpness and highlights, IMHO. Nice colorful snap.
