Jayson, I like B&W for evening out uneven skin tones and focusing on the lines of the image, in this case the model's face. What is it that you are trying to tell me with this pic? I am going to guess. You like the lighting, the simple lines and expression of the model tell me that this is either a good snapshot or an intimate portrait. A piece of white cardboard to the left would open up the model's eyes and add that sparkle. She is outside a door, and the sky is overcast... where do we go from here?
Here's mine - outdoor with a gold reflector
