A little blur on the handle and left hand would suggest movement and add some believeability. Also, your background is very distracting becasue of the wrinkles and blown highlights. Fleshtones and wood appear dirty.

Tonality is very good, but I'm questioning the imbalance that I see heavily weighted to the right, and nothing to counterbalance it on the left. Does not evoke scary feelings in me, possibly because there is so much light, and possibly because of quick egress through the front door. If it evokes any feelings in me is sadness to think of the lives that lived there and of the delapidated condition it is in now. Maybe subconsciously the closet door represents years gone by. I see the visual tension in the image existing between the closet door (past) and the foreground window (Present) which I think you did a good job to emphasize using a wide angle lens.

Contrast is too high as you've lost detail in the black wings and the highlights of the roof shingles are almost blown. This would be a very good shot if you could see more of the wings detail.

Very beautiful model and excellent lighting but I would really like this a bit softer. You can see the pores in her skin.

Awesome! Only thing I would like is deeper DOF so the entire feather was in focus. A great image, nonetheless.
