Over all image impact is strong, the background out of focus helps draw your eye to the subject. The expression on her face is relaxed and pleasing. All this makes for a good out door portrait. Perhaps a vertical framing would have been a little better. That would let the subject fill more of the frame.
The image appears to be a bit (candy color) in your comments you indicate that the image was enhanced by - Saturation - Auto Contrast - Shadows and Highlights. I have noticed a tendency to over saturate images; a portrait in most cases does not need much saturation. Too much saturation and contrast tend to make the flesh tones look (candy color). Not to say that this is not a good portrait, however I think if you were to use less saturation and contrast you may see the difference. Some time less is better.
Over all I would say well done, keep up the good work.

Very nicely done - comp, dof - great. Seems just a little too bright or overexposed maybe. Other than that - I love it. |

Nice vibrant colors and good happy person you get to photography, the placement of the subject in the centre usually doesn̢۪t do it for me but I like how the rails add a symmetry effect to the whole photo. So it actually works well in this case, besides that it's a very sharp photo with a good DOF. Keep up the good work! |

Challenge: 10 has a person meets my criteria
Composition: 7 Just to centered I think if you would have put the model on the left more or the right the use of the background would have been good.
Creativity: 8 I like how you used the bridge in perspective but once again too centered
Technical: 10 The shot is very sharp
Overall: 8 |

Very pretty subject, nice depth of field. I would move to one sode or the other, though, as it's just too symmetrical for me. It looks a bit like the bridge walls are growing out of her ears. [8] |

Beautiful! The focus is lovely, and I adore the colours. Beautiful bokeh with that pretty background so nicely blurred. Sharpness on the subject is excellent, and I like that she's positioned perfectly in line with the bridge. This is really a lovely photo - nice work! |

Nice isolation of the subject. It seems a little over saturated, but so are a lot of my shots. :-) |

The blur appears to be a bit unnatural and does not fall off evenly |

What a wonderful photo. Colour, focus all excellent. I particulary like the position of the subject. Some say you should never centre subjects but thats all rubbish, it works great here. |
