A fun portrait . I would probably crop tighter on your model. 2 things will then happen
You will get more detail on her beautiful face and you will eliminate some of the dead space above her head.
This is a strong image, nonetheless, Good lighting

I would have cropped a little closer (the hand makes her seem too self-conscious) and placed the bubble in the very center. You can get bigger bubbles if you don't use real bubble gum, but a balloon instead!

Comment by vikas:
Nice pose and lighting 6 .. i don't think the extra background on the top is adding any interest to the picture, except that it makes this picture fit the challenge. IMO what would have worked better is a closer crop so that the bubblegum becomes the center of the frame .. i would have given it a 10 with that crop!

A fun shot. Not sure if all the negative space at the top is doing much for it, but that's probably a personal preference thing, as it was clearly intentional. Otherwise, I like this.

Comment by Lutchenko:
I'm not keen on the way you cropped the hand it almost makes it seem like it isn't her hand.
Also for my taste I would back off the red a bit but that's just personal opinion. 5

Comment by iMichel:
Nice point of view and central focus for DOP on opposing sides, but the over exposure is a little harsh on the eyes while the striping is warm; Suggestion...perhaps adding a layer beneath the photo containing the same brown tone and erasing the white @ 80 to 90 % opacity could add the tint of brown necessary to mute the contrast.
