I will agree with my wife in that it is spooky and cool but will disagree that bugs and flowers are bad:)

I really dig this. the blur at the top is a little distracting btu still cool overall.

Comment by posthumous:
The first thing that strikes me is the crop. Unlike a standard portrait, she is not surrounded by her environment. In fact, she only allows environment on one side of her, and since she is facing away from that side, it seems behind her. Her "front", her "direction" goes off to our right. but she looks back towards us, so we are not quite in front of her, we're off a little to her right. I basically feel like a minor distraction in her life. She is on her path, firmly so. She controls her life just like she dominates the composition. Even her head is cropped. This is highly subjective, but another effect of this extreme crop is that the background seems to be emanating from her. I imagine it's her memory, which she is about to put behind her for good. Just look how much you would have lost by cropping this more conventionally!

I think you should take shots of Mandy sitting everywhere..a devilish grin, inviting the viewer to wonder what is going to happen next...Mandy sitting on the street, Mandy sitting in front of an upscale restaurant...
this is only the beginning...
over to you posthumous...
