I really like the pose in 2. The broken waist line along with the dissing, roll-eyed look on her face is kinda original. Nice shot over all. #1 I don't like. If I had to change anything I would maybe give it some more space above her head instead of making it so tight in 1,2. Are they crops or full versions?

#3 is cool but selective coloring must make a statement. Did you leave the coat colored as well? Looks like it and I'd rather have it desaturated as well if you decided to go that way.

its the full version.. didn't crop it out.. but ill work on that..

Would agree with the framing suggestion. The background in the second shot IMO is a bit distracting. Not sure if those are buidings or bleacher seats back there but I feel it takes away from the cute model in the foreground..

The background in an image can be as important as the subject. I like the background in #3. Also the b&w conversion with the color scarf. However, her head is positioned as such its lined up with the darker trees. Part of your subject is difficult to see clearly. If her whole body was lined up in the lighter colored pathway she would stand out more. Had your model been much older and had grey hair the composition could have worked as is. The lighter hair color would then work to provide more definition between her and the dark trees in the background.

Just some ideas...hope this helps.

The poses in the first two shots look odd to me. Her body doesn't line up with her feet and looks unnatural. Like 3, would have liked to see her walking towards you framed the same way.

Overall nice poses.

#1 - looks out of focus and could benefit from a more background blur.
#2 - Same as the first, out of focus and could benefit from a more background blur.
#3 - I really love this photo even the selective coloring defiantly my favorite!

I'm going to go against the flow here and say that I don't like the poses. Her legs look a bit awkwardly placed. I like the framing in 1, 2 is good too. The selective color I'm not so sure about. I think that is something that you either like or not, but I'd rather have it when it really says something about the subject, like in the pictures of Schindler's List.
