Jose, unfortunately, this one looks like you got the focus slightly too far forward, which is easy to do at f/1.2. This would be a stronger image if Dale's right eye was in focus rather than her right eyebrow and hair forward of that point. I think that's even more important as the brighter lighting on the left side of her face is brighter and attracts attention there, so the right eye needs to be nailed to be able to compete better. Great composition and I like the lighting effect.
What's that effect at the left and bottom of the frame with the low contrast and reduced colour? Is that how you shot or did that come from processing afterwards? Works well to isolate Dale's face more.
