Cute shot but some curious post-processing. Looks like you darkened the background elements on the right but not on the left. |

Flash, right? The light form a flash is so hard to control. I think the reason an on camera flash looks so un natural is that we humans are accustomed to light coming from above. The sun is overhead, our lights are inthe ceiling. So the beautiful girl, the inegmatic smile, the colorful hat, the negative space - none of that is going to make up for the flash in the voting. Also if I cover up the left side of the image to get rid of the distracting background, i lose the back half of the bonnet but I think her face stands out better. This exact picture, done with windowlight would be a stunner! |

nice sharp focus. I'm not sure the dark background is really best though. My thoghts are that a prairie in shallow DOF might have worked better. Good lighting! |

Flash effects mar an otherwise whimsical semi-portrait. |

Great colors! Very "Little House on the Prairie". Good job. |

nice contrast in color and sharpness in detail. might would have cropped it just below her chin though. the haphazard tie and her shirt add a touch of distraction to the shot. |

Looks like you used the flash here? It's cast quite a harsh shadow on the girl's face. It's best to diffuse the flash when taking portraits if you haven't done so already in this shot. I also think it seems a little over-sharpened and over-contrasty, but of course that's just a personal perference. |

Nice image. A little oversharpened for my taste - makes the bonnett pattern too harsh (IMO). Very cute though. |

a very colourful bonnett and lovely blue eye peeking out from underneath :) my eye keeps wandering to the objects behind your model. Some burning in that area would have helped. |
