I'm curious what all those white spots are in the lower half of the image. Did you apply a filter in post?

Hi yes, I added a slight filter to simulate ambient dust from the alien skin exposure series

I'm not sure if you ask cor critique but I assume yes... If not then sorry :) First of all image is pretty small and it's pretty much difficult to talk about details where there is none of them. Face looks well lid, maybe little too flat but I dont mind that as long as there is nice background. In this case its pure white that.. well it's not that interesting :( About eyes and emotion - well I can't feel that, maybe it's because I've seen so many photos where eyes catching my attention... Last thing - white spots in lower part of image, well intreseting idea that could work nicely in outdoor photography - in this case I guess it could also work yet need something more. Right now it looks more like an artefact than an artistic accent.

Hope this helps improve,
Cheers,

This is exactly what I was looking for :) Thanks for being so open about critique :) Very helpful for me
