Don't like the crop off of the two arms. She looks nice!

this is a gorgeous shot, but blue isn't a good filter to use on people. They look dead

Not voting yet, but I think I know that cutie...Shailesh? Wish you had not cut her elbows off, it also looks more blue than black and white, but otherwise I like the composition, and the naturalness in her smile.

Hi Shailesh-

I think what hurts this photo most is that the background is too busy. It's the only part of the photo in focus, so we search on it for a place of interest and find nothing, and the biker is there but somehow seems secondary to the leaves. It would work better with a plain background. Also, the lighting is natural, but too white. Shooting when the sun is low in the sky will give an outdoor subject a nice photogenic golden glow.

Much better. The red was too overpowering. Now it is more natural.

Cute idea, the opposite of most of the bike shots in this challenge!
