This shot has the potential to be very good, but there are a few things about it which take away from it.
First is the strong sunlight on her hair, it makes me focus on that straight away rather than her eyes, which is a real shame because the eyes are very well done. The lighting from the right is nice, but it could have been better if it was diffused a little, perhaps even something as simple as through a white towel / sheet.
Second is the large leaf, I don't think it really serves any useful purpose here and seems to sit very out of context. The shot would probably have been better without it as the model is definitely enough to make the shot interesting on her own.
Lastly, the white background to the left of the image is a touch distracting, not too bad because it's blurred and not overly harsh, but it might have been worth seeing what the shot was like if you moved the composition to the right a little away from the light area.
I am still giving this a 7 though, because despite what I have pointed out, I still feel it's a very good portrait. |

| Even though it's washed out on the hair it does show how fill flash is supposed to be used against highlights. Good Job |

This would really be a wonderful shot without the leaf... and naming it 'leaf' is clever, but... doesn't change the image. *grin*
Still it's a 6 with me... It would be a 7 or 8 without the leaf since the leaf has no context in the image... WHY is it there hiding her face when there's nary a tree or another leaf in sight?
It's sharp and well composed... and that bokeh is wonderful. |

| well done ... the positioning of your subject is great. You've used the fill flash to balance the sunlight very well here ... |
