Wonderful composition
Great lighting and effect
sharply focused subject and super choice of Aperture for d.o.f effect
WB to me - I would say that it is spot-on
Overall: works beautifully - a real 'dreamy-feel'

Thank you Cham_001. I appreciate the comments. This was my 'practice' for an engagement + 2 senior portraits that I want to do at this location. My lovely wife is always willing to stand in as my model :-)

So I think they will come out nice....

good shot dont care for the wheat or straw in front of the face I have seen similar shots that dont have the straw in front of the face that work much better.

I agree with Mgw, the blockage of the face isnt working for me.

I'll have to do some landscaping next time to remove the occlusion :-)

Great composition and exposure! I love the lighting on the image. Was this with the natural light no flash? Looking at the compression from the background i assume you were at 200mm.

Thanks for the comments.

This was all natural light, sun coming from the top left maybe 100 degrees from the camera.

1d Mk III - 70-200mm f/2.8 was set at 100mm @ f/2.8 for 1/160 ISO 100.

We were right in the middle of the thick grass
