Thanks, Bruce.
I'll see if I can burn that ear in a bit and maybe dodge the background
some in Lightroom. I was so focused on getting rid of the shine on her
skin (that was one of the last shots of the day, so it was pretty
pronounced by then) that I didn't even notice.
The line is clearer in the original version, but I have similar shots
that I left in color. I just thought that one was better suited to black
& white, and with your suggestions, I think it'll be just right.
Thanks again!

A very pretty girl, Walt, with a pleasant expression. Nicely oof background.
I'd darken her ear somewhat. A little rim light from behind would have
been nice to separate her hair from the black background, esp. near
her upper forehead, right. Perhaps that line is clearer in the colour
original?

Dealing with the horrid heat and humidity sucked pretty badly, but it wasn't
without its rewards. This one is of the oldest child of the family, Amaya.
She has really beautiful skin, and it's a shame I had to photograph her in
the weather as it was, but I thought this turned out pretty damned well in
spite of it all.
