 The soft focus was actually intentional, I added a gaussian blur in PS and faded it.

Makes me wonder what she'd doing, and where she's going. Has a dream like feel too. Perhaps a bit too centrally composed though....?

A little too soft and the color balance doesn't seem right.

This was a nice entry. I would have liked to see more of her. Positioned her to the right of the frame and took the bright tree out of the right. Nice!

Really like this shot. Would have liked to see a bit more sharpness in the girl, but that is a minor issue. Almost makes her look mystical

Nicely done. Using the a soft focus filter adds a great dreamy feel to this shot and muting the colors so that your subject stands out against the dark background was a great call. All that said, it seems that the trees and your model all lean to photographer's right but the ground is level. Perhaps the shot was taken on a slight incline?

I wonder if this image would of been even better if you took the time to focus.

You just missed the "dream" effect, but this is a great composition.

Everything is soft in this picture (camera shake?). This blur would add to the picture if her pose wasn't so static. BTW she reminds me Liv Tyler in Lord of the Rings :)
