The title certainly doesn't match what I see even if you are looking out the window or what have you.
Good composition, a bit more light on the left side of the face would help IMHO

Nice lighting. I think this would have greater impact as a portrait if you cropped off most of the left side .

Very nice use of what I'm assuming is natural light - and if not, you did a great job mimicking it.

Very nice shot. I would perhaps prefer this with a tighter crop on the head

Excellent lighting. Nice use of neg space too. I might crop out a tad to the right and a bit off of the bottom.
