Bumping it up at another look. Very imaginative. Has a mystic flavour to it.

Nice colours but it's too small to appreciate the details.

Nice capture on the "look" but it looks overly saturated.

Like this composition. Too bad the blue looks processed and the eyes struggle to appreciate the details.

This could have been much better if it didn't look over-processed.

Great "portrait" indeed! Bumping it up on another look to 10. It's a great study on bringing out its human face.

Very nice! Love the overall soft glow and the tones. You can actually create 2 different moods with this. One as it is which works well and an alternative one that's more focused on the girl by cropping out the sun. :)

Centre of Attention

Hi Chris, this idea has great potential and love the candid-ness of it! The skin tones are beautiful. My suggestion if ever it was possible of course:
- enlarge it so she does take a slightly bigger center spot
- that will crop out the foreground and the sides a little
- and maybe adjust the levels just to reduce the brightness a wee bit

Still like it as you've captured the beauty of her happiness.
