I just love the action in this shot - the braids flying out are a particularly nice touch. It was also interesting to work with the different skin tones as well - I believe this is the only portrait in which there are only two major skin tones.
Nice simple jewellery and adornments on the red clothing help make this portrait too. Great contrast with the eyes and skin make this a relatively simple yet engaging portrait, and it's another one I'm pretty happy with.
