the light on her face is not flattering...I think your white balance is a little off. Very pretty girl though.

it's overexposed. You need a little faster shutter speed.
Framing is very good though. Practice makes perfect. There's lots of potential, keep at it!

If it was a snapshot then I say I like it. If it was a posed/planned shot then there it is okay, but needs some things fixed.. as mentioned above! Great concept!

The background looks great ! If you would have looked around for some soft open shade it would have been much better. There is too much ratio ... too much difference between the brightest part of the image and the deepest. You just need to learn how to compress that ratio.

Not bad for an early post. Keep snapping away, learning, and posting.

Looks like you (more likely the camera) metered for the background exposure and not for her face. Make sure you have the camera meter for your subject next time.
