I like the picture - composition, brilliant colors, nice scenic. It strikes me more as a scenic with the girl as a prop rather than a portrait of the girl with the scenery as background.

Figure a little closer would have worked better for me.

Greetings from the Critique Club Shannon.

Good title and the colors are certainly beautiful. I think composition really got you in a bad spot here. There's a lot going on (busy) and my eyes just keep wandering all over the image wanting more. All of the subjects on the edge of this shot are cropped out: The flowers on the bottom front and the ones in the bucket. The guy's back and feet. The lady's elbow, etc. The tilted canvas in the background didn't help you either. Also seems to be a stop underexposed as well. So many things fight for attention here that it's a bit hard to overcome.

Thanks for the opportunity to critique this image Shannon.

Cheers - Phil

Comment by Titia:
The upper blurry part is too much and distracting in my opinion, it takes my eye away from the flower below. I think the cropping on the right side is a bit too tight.

This seems tilted and more of a candid "grab" shot than a carefully composed photojournalistic photo, as your subjects are partially cut off on both sides.
