I find this a little cluttered, and I am not sure what I should be looking at.

Beautiful example of the rules of thirds.

Looks very posed, and I personally don't like the crop.

to me...the picture is off balance...the model is facing the right side of the frame when all the space is on the left....try to make sure that your subjects are positioned so they are looking or facing toward the center of the frame rather than toward an outer edge...thats just wait I have learned from all my reading...other than that...everything else looks great...love the b/w....8

Comment by didjital01:
the only thing I don't like about it is the dark band on the far right behind the subject... it seems to push her out of the frame - more accurately it seems to shrink the frame horizontally. then again it adds to the tension of her looking past- and being at - the edge already.

Rule of thirds needs your point of interest on or near the intersetion of the thirds lines. In this case, you'd move you model left in frame, the vertical is ok

Comment by Riponlady:
I would have moved her slightly left or cropped the pic less tightly on the right but good image and meets challenge

Comment by KarenNfld:
She seems a little too close to the edge of the photo.

I think you gave the photograph good tension by facing the subject out of the frame, leaves you wondering what she's waiting for.

I would have preferred her a little to the left. Also, I've read (and notifced more sinc reading it) that facing objects to the left creates more tension. I tried it on this picture, and it changes from waiting for a friend and bored, to waiting to go into a hospital room or something more forebodeing.

I like the tonal range, and how the flattened but still textured wall (or whatever leads your eye to her. Nice use of negative space. Move her a little center, and facing left and I really like this much better.
