The eyes ...

... as most of my models, this lady is new to photography ...

YOu really need to pick either going black and white or in color. Leaving only the eyes somewhat colored makes it look weird. I would also look at a tighter crop on her face, from that angle and lighting the upper dress/breasts don't add to this image.

I agree about staying with either b/w or full color. Are her eyes actually 2 different colors (1 brown, 1 blue)? I think the colored eyes are slightly distracting.

She's beautiful though.

Selective coloring went the way I hope HDR does soon =)

No, they're the same colour ... as a matter of fact she quite liked the way I 'partially toned' some of my B&W work and insisted I do the same on some of her pictures. The result I guess depends much on the colour of the eyes and the size of the portrait ...

Thanks for your comment, but not knowing what your hopes regarding HDR are, I fail to understand what you mean ...
