I'm just not seeing much here. I think title is an important piece of overall presentation; here you've gone with "Naturally" yet there is nothing in the expression to support that (or vice versa) and the processing of the shot also does not support that. Actually, I'm not sure what is going on here with the processing but IMO it's not working. I'm seeing a large part of the frame taken up with what could be leaves but again, they don't look "natural." They also don't lead the viewer's eye up to what I assume is your focal point, they just kind of get in the way. An extra point, tho, for trying something new and taking some risk.

i like this shot, i think i would have cropped off a little at the bottom because i think it detracts away from the eyes.

A colored version of this would help the viewer I think.

I'm not crazy about the post processing. It's a tad dark as well but still its creative. Remember always be proud of your work and keep shooting!
