I really like it but I found my head tilting to really take-in the image. I'm not sure if that is good or bad but it makes me wonder if the angle is too severe.

I love the lighting, color and clarity of the eye but the nose is distracting

I agree on the crop. I do like the DOF. There's good seperation between the subject and the background.

This is the best of the three for me. I think when a photo envokes a mood you've made a success and this one really hits that soft early morning feeling for me.

I think the lighting is awesome. The only nitpick I have is that her foot is cropped or not in the original frame. My first reaction was that the frame should have been lower but I think you would have lost the lovely highlights at the top.

Very nice shot!

Was you title subliminal so we'd give it a six? Not quite for me :-)

Not very pastel-ish

Looks far too innocent to be called a coquette :-)
Nice execution, very soft and pastel-like
