Good, the tight crop to the right doesn't bother me, even with the cut off leg, that is not a problem. If it hadn't been for the stool with the shoes it wouldn't have worked. The stairs or whatever it is in the background left brings in the balance. But I don't really like the irregularities in the background, especially immediately behind the girl's head. Also the prominent dark part of the stool leg on the left of the girl's calf muscle I would have taken out.

I totally agree! The ones here are only from envy!

Very delicate, very detailed. The girl looks so young and fragile. Without the ring one would guess she is 11 or 12 years old, but the ring gives her age away. The desaturation of the scarf on the right is unnatural but here it works into the total image somehow, I like it. Excellent work Manny, I could learn a lot from you.

Looking at this again after one and a half years, I now find that I don't like this as much as I did when I submitted it. For one thing the light is too flat and the crop could also have been a lot better. I much prefer this version

Apart from the lightened part of the background in the middle this is super! I would have darkened the background to completely black. As it is, the lightened part in the middle will show through on a lot of monitors, especially TFT one like on this shitty laptop I am using at work :)
