Honestly I think you've nailed it. What I mean is that the image grabs your attention and forces the viewer to start asking questions (what is going on here? What is this NO H8 written on her face?). The idea (if I understand it correctly) was not to beautify the model (she doesn't need it anyway), but to draw attention and unsettle the viewer. What was your emotional goal here? The bright flash gives her a deer-in-the-headlights look (fear, panic), but her composure is calm and maybe a bit confused or concerned. Then again this emotional contrast may make it all the more unsettling.
Mine for today:

Another beautiful desktop picture (if you don't mind not being able to see your files)...
This is a 16th century UFO: a wonderfully eccentric little building, built as almshouses for six widows, with the entrance to each section being via the central chapel. I'll be staying here for a long weekend, with chums, after Christmas...

"Almshouses are charitable housing provided to enable people (typically elderly people who can no longer work to earn enough to pay rent) to live in a particular community. They are often targeted at the poor of a locality, at those from certain forms of previous employment, or their widows, and are generally maintained by a charity or the trustees of a bequest."
We all really appreciate the high level of photography that you share with us, Doylem, but perhaps you should take a long look at your budget priorities...
...Unique image. I am looking forward to a photo tour of the North of England as a part of my retirement plan.

Wonderful colors. Reminds me of growing up in the Midwest. Not a lot of Fall color here in the NorthWest. May I use this as a Fall desktop?

Canal panorama
The Fuji A170 has a scene mode for panoramas-take 3 overlapping images and it'll stitch these together in-camera to create a panorama.
