This is a nice pose, but the light is a bit harsh. You've got some overexposure to the point of blown highlights on her shirt, and the left side of her face is too hot under her eye. The other thing to watch out for is shadows. I'm just working on this myself, so they stick out in my mind. In this case, the shadow cast by her nose is rather prominant. In natural light, this can only be fixed by adjusting her pose in relation the sun. However, if you have an off-camera flash, you can use it to gently fill that in.

Pretty good picture for a difficult lighting situation. It's hard to shoot in direct sunlight without either blowing the highlights or losing the shadows and you seemed to do well on both ends here.

The cropping feels wrong with just a piece of the leg on the left side and cut across her chest on the bottom. She is centered within the frame while looking out of the frame.

I do like the position/angle of her body and the angle of her head. And I generally don't mind having the subject look out of the frame. But in this case, because of her position within the frame, I think I would like to have her look at the camera.
