I think my biggest problem is that I don't see the environment. The emotion in the face is fantastic, but this challenge was to see the subect in their environment. To communicate how the environment defines the subject and how they interact within that environment. You could remove the mike stand and change the angle of her hand and you have a great shot of grief.

She looks really scared or nervous, so how much does she sing then

I think this would have been way better without the hand at the mic. First impression, picture all alone, is she's eating something. Then with the title I see she's singing, so that's the mic. And she needs some expression.

Nice natural expression. I'd like the photo better if the mike wasn't almost fully covered with her hand.

lighting's a little hard but it may be all you had to work with, wish too her hand weren't covering the mike, good try.

she looks a little too nervous to be saying that this is her element, great idea though, filling the frame

Its not a bad portrait but all I see of the environment is the mike, and barely that.
