i'm not sure i understand why the face is "cracked" but the shot itself is good. Nice lighting and composition. Background seems a little too busy for me, as it detracts from the intricacies of the burkkha(sp?). Or maybe its not even a burkkha. But you know what i mean.

The space on top is too distracting for me, draws my attention away from her face which is very striking. I'm not sure about the 'cracks' but they honestly kept my attention for a few seconds, so I suppose they work.
