Greetings from the Critique Club

Fit: That's a tought one...does the image convery stillness? In a way it does but at first glance it looks like she is walking the horse. This may have garnered a few DNMC votes.

Composition: Splitting the frame with two strong elements is risky as the viwer doesnt know where to look.

Technical: The background is lit up a lot. As some commenters noted, this can be distracting. It also seems your focus was on the horse, not the girl. I think the other way around would have been better.

Feel: Despite what I have said above, I like this shot. Focus on the girl and I may have voted it a 6!

PM me if you have any questions

That's an interesting experiment, but I'm not sure about the cropping, in my opinion there is too much gray on the foreground
