  This photo tells a story with great light. Moon lit? Was it posed or a steet shot?

  I really like the pose and the idea. The low light gives it a good mood. My only possible suggestion is to add a little more contrast if possible and see how it looks. I would also clone the branch right at the top on her head.

  David....She is a pro, its posed.

Dennis, adding contrast would destroy the mood and the root adds interest but thanks.

  I like it. And as this is a shot you worked hard for, and I'm no expert my two cents matter little.
But, I might say anyway...maybe the tiniest bit of lightness for her face. Her face blends into her hair a bit much to really focus there first. But like I said, I am no expert and you put a lot of work into this already.

  nice treatment of
what seems to have
been a
short scale subject
rich mid-tones
are well balanced
by low values
and well controlled
hilights
you might consider
a slight variant
the bottom crop
rather than giving
the left side 1/3
and the right 1/2
you might go 1/4 on the left
and 1/3 on the right

  I really like this photo. That's not really a valid critique point, but I do like it. Is that a lense flare down by the right foot? Nice touch.

  I like this picture too. Did you take this shot in colour. I would like to see the coloured picture if you have it. This was a great picture yes the colour of it reminds me of underworld too. Which was one of my Favorite movies. When you look at your picture it makes you think. To me if a picture makes you think it a good one.
