I love one word titles. The figure walking up the brick sidewalk grounds the shot and gives us a point of reference.

Nice composition. The softness adds much to the shot, 10.

This looks like a sepia portrait with green eyes instead of a color portrait.

With the untidy elements cropped from either side the image has more strength and balance.

Comment by jpochard:
A couple of suggestions I would give for this one. The overall feel, while I'm sure is meant to be soft, also feels out of focus to me. I think a big part of that is from the large fall of hair on her shoulder that is all out of focus.

The eyes also seem dark. The muted tones can work, but I would still like to see more lightness in the whites of the eyes. As it is, the whites almost match the skin tone, which really loses the focus on them. The muted tones also seem to make the bottom rim of the eyes kinda pink, like she's been crying or something.
Just one woman's opinion but I hope this is helpful.

This is VERY good! Could have got a ribbon for Construction challenge. Might not here, but it is a fine shot ..... and not an easy one to get right. Love that small chunk of cloud upper right. I tip my hat to you.

A little too soft for my taste, but a nice capture. I like the direct look at the camera.

Very nice portrait, but it's too obvious the eye didn't get the same post-processing than the rest of the photo, and I think it's kind of disturbing ....

Nice try, but I just can cosider these branches or limbs, literally or metaphorically.
