A portrait of Eve, who was a portrait client that's now my friend.

Shot using the original Canon 5D with a Canon 100mm f/2.6 Macro USM lens attached, set to f/11, 1/160th sec, ISO 100.

Nice! Evocative. Lively. Simple. Good. Definitely deserving of the Winner badge.

Dan, I'm very impressed with her flawless, unblemished skin while retaining skin texture.
I'm assuming you use some form of frequency separation in your work flow.
Softly blended highlights with well shaped shadows.
Really nice shape to her hair and how it creates sinuous framing of her face.
You keep getting better and better at this.

Thank you so much. There was no frequency separation, just good makeup, spot healing, and careful dodging and burning.

Detail is usually nice in a picture but I personally don't find skin pores and exposed make-up appealing. It's good work but it's just too close up for my liking. If she were further back with the skin looking smooth I would like this more.

I agree with Kirk, way to much skin pores, but an otherwise great shot.

Thanks for the feedback. Personally I can't stand the look of skin that has been smoothed over, but that's just me.
