Great natural pose/setting, I'd like to see just a bit more focus on the model's face though, as the soft focus background is awesome.

The hair in the eyes really distracts me. The direction her face looks "compete" with the strong line made by the sidewalk and road barrier behind her (plus the "arrow" of light just to the left of her head).

I find this shot very busy and a bit too centered. Nice light and tonal range though.

good idea but the shot looks candid.
Would have been better without the hair in the face.

The post-processing on this helps it tremendously, taking an otherwise mundane and mediocre snapshot and capturing the "mood" of the shot and creating a work of art. Very finely done. I'm having a little difficulty ascertaining whether the subject is smiling or crying, though...probably because the eyes are obscured by her hair. I find the ambiguity intriguing. 7 from me.

Not keen on the blow outs in the background, and I wish her hair wasnt in her face. Good Luck 4
