Great shot, but ouch! You missed the hands.

Eyes and hands tell us most about a person. The space above isn't adding any new info to the subject, so it could have been framed lower and captured those fingers.

Still, it is a great portrait. She has Mona Lisa's smile.

thanks for your comments everyone! ... yes, I am totally in agreement about the hands as well. This was a total candid shot when I walked to the doorway of the house and saw her standing there. I wish I would have gotten her hands as well, but her eyes just caught my immediate attention!

You could crop in above the elbows that way it wont look as bad and please remove that black line growing out of her ear she looks angelic. :judge: :judge: :judge:
