Greetings from Andi via the Critique Club. Congratulations on a new personal best Justen. consider this your 'bench' score, I'm pretty sure it won't be long before you get a new pb ;)

First Impression: A well thought out shot that didn't really need a title as the story is quite obvious to me. If you had straightened the bench I think the image would have been better received.

Composition:A wise choice to have your model on one side of the frame, the shadows nicely fill out the negative grass space. Focus is right where it should be and the dof is spot on.

Subject: I'm thinking many of your lower scores were from voters that were looking for the footwear to fill the frame more however, I much prefer the fact that you included more of the model to tell the story. The models hands and leg placement is great and no need to include any more of her.

Technical: The shadow/light on your models legs is very nice and agree with the earlier comment about a boost on contrast to help the overall feeling of the image.

Final thoughts: A well thought out shot, its an image that tells a story so well done and I'm looking forward to more from you Justen!

A little more contrast could have helped, but nice job.

Strong image. I can feel the nervous tension created by her feet and hands. Great in BW
