Very nice, but (and you knew it was coming) it reminds me of when I spilled some fix in the developer tray. I mean, I like the toning and the softness, but the contrast seems lacking. For example, the shiny spot on her forehead is your "white" - but it isn't. OTOH, I love the pose, styling, darkness and mood you created. Maybe contrast isn't a good thing here. Not sure.
Overexposed and pulled Tri-X, eh?
Thanks for sharing.
