My focus was on her blue eyes with softbox and spot light to try and achieve the best lighting possible.
I did not treat this image in any way.

Stunning portrait Henk, and quite amazing detail. V1 is my preferred. V2 appears a touch under/flat, and I feel could have done with a slight increase in tone favouring the face - just to increase the contrast somewhat. Even a little adjustment in Curves can do it. What a pleasure to see your work large now.

A lovely appealing photograph. The color juxtaposition of the blue and orange are so appealing
I presume the soft box is bottom right and the spot middle left - this combination gives a lovely soft look. I especially like the way her right jaw line is still gently outline with shade and also her nose is beautifully delineated with shade.
The eyes could have been with being a little brighter or the lower face slightly darker but this is very fine tuning for me. If angling the spot would not have achieved this then I might have tried using a snoot.
My eye does get caught up on the 'ruffle' in her top on the right. I would have lost this somehow if I was willing to lose the no treatment tag.
