    Very cool. Maybe a tad bright on the nose and just a fraction uneven ( the right side is a touch brighter) but still very very good in my eyes.

    Good one Ali. Play with it a bit and even out the light as Peter said, brightness and angle, and it will be perfect.

    I frankly like this image. I think that you might tone down the bright side a bit in post processing but, I don't think that the sides need to mirror each other exactly. I wonder, however, if a bit of a crop at the top to end up with less hair showing might be better. Of course, show the same photo to a hundred different photographers and you will get a hundred different ideas about cropping!
