Well, the picture has a nice sky perspective and the girl's eyes draw you to the stone. But I find the stone to be too small and her lower area too much "in the face", which is a turn off. Othewise, its an ok, average shot. Good luck.

Good for you for going out on a limb with this unusual angle. The only problem I have is that the rock seems to be a minor part of the composition. 6

I do not like the tree behind your model. This takes away from the photo.

This looks more like a snapshot of the girl, and not much to do with the rock.

I think her pose and expression seem a bit awkward.

Comment by MikeO:
Good exposure and focus. Now dont think I am being mean but there are a few things that I would have done differently.
Although a lot of people say you should never put a subject in the centre of a photo I do not agree - if it works do it. However I dont think it works here. If you look at the person it looks like the tree is growing out of head! (I have done this so many times!). If you had positioned the person more to the right or left of the frame it might have looked totally different. Also try changing this to black and white and see if that would have been better. Anyway I hope these comments help and I wish you good luck.

Centered subject with harsh shadows on the face, with tree growing out of back of head and deep dof resulting in distracting background... a great example of a typical snapshot.
Try waiting for a different time of day when the light is low and less harsh, use rule of thirds for your subject and try experimenting with a reflector. Make sure the background is not distracting, and try some more flattering poses and expressions without the strap around the neck.
