I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby, it just happens everyday

- Rolling Stones "Paint it black"

This is a beautiful capture. However the editing of her skin on her cheeks seem blotchy and a little over edited. Maybe if you had left the cheek alone like the forehead, nose and chin it would have looked more evened out. The only thing I would have done to this would have been to remove the stray hair near her eye. Beautiful lighting.

The future is mine. That stare is powerful plus the monochrome

Re JudiD: I think the chin and the imperfection shows like a splatter of dirt or blood caused by a struggle. Your comment is correct and I just wanted to bring a different element to this wonderful photo
