Beautiful photo and beautiful girl. Funny comments, one will critcize on say the light, the next will complement same point - just goes to show you can't please everyone :~)

I do agree about teh yellow cast though - even though the light looks like it i very warm, it does give the overall picture a yellow cast - at least on my monitor. Also agree on the comment re the reflector for the shadow. Still nice job, congrats on your score.

Beautiful photo - shame she isn't smiling and slightly messy background. Cracking light though!

Attractive girl. However, the strong light is not to my taste. It would be nice if her eye pupils were a little more dilated - they have closed up because of the bright sunlight.

Nicely done, even in rather challenging harsh sunlight. Beautiful sharpness, warm color and expression.

Her eyes are very pretty and alluring. I like the way you isolated your subject by blurring the background. This is very good and should do well. Good Luck

Very nice job, I think it worked out well. I might have worked a bit with the saturation and the white balance to create a bit less orange cast to the skin, but other than that it is a great portrait.

Beautiful lady. Lucky fellow(? ... hum... photographer). A reflector might be used to soften the shadow under her chin.

Light is harsh, gives her face too much texture on the cheeks. I would've turned her so the sun was to the side or behind and used fill flash or a reflector. Composition and pose are spot on though.

This is a tad too orange/yellow for my liking. Nice and crisp though.

The lighting is a little too specular for my liking. Nice DOF.
