I really like the first one here Wendell - you know I'm not into the sort of shots you usually take, but this one really grabs me.
I think the fact her eyes are blue makes this pic - the rest of the pic is reasonably mono, other than the little bit of warmth in the makeup. This is offset beautifully by the eyes. Nice
Predictably, the others don't do a great deal for me - but that's just me, I'm just not into this style of photography

(maybe because I've never been able to take a decent portrait - or maybe I'm just too ugly and these sort of people piss me off

).
