Nice contrast in the eyes and beautiful posing. Would it not look a bit better with a faster B/W film?

Terry a soft filter is a great tool but how you use it is very important. A basic rule of thumb is if what you are doing it taking away or not adding anything to the image then STOP!
You have a nice portrait now and a good expression, so lets see what's next. hmm... take more shots!

In addition Terry look at Dave Yelen's portrait Called "Desi" on this site. Very similar pose and very good use of focus and selective lens aperture.

Terry this is much better. you can use diffusion in many different ways & abuse it also. Diffusion filters and especially Softars (the best of the dif. filters) are affected by several different things, F stop, colors, light intensity and reflections. Use of diffusion is an acquired skill and selection of it's usage is also. Not all subjects benefit by it and especially as intense as it was in the other version of her. Might be a #1 softar would work on her which would give you the glow & subtle softning you want without it being an obvious bluring. None the less the other version was not as much as being right or wrong for the model but rather just to intense for the subject the way it was rendered, it looked blurry not softened. Keep up the good work and as you do a lot of these you will develop an inate skill in the usage of the effect.

There must be a different way between one another that we critique pictures. I am a fan of the diffusion filter. I hate a studio picture to be really sharp,especially if the model has curly hair. I love the glow, and my photography teacher likes it too, which is part of the reason I do it. Got to get that A ) But thanks though. I love to be critiqued!!
