Compositionally, this shot is done well, I think. It is fairly balanced between the face and background, but may need just a smidgen more at the bottom -- maybe include more of the chin.
Technically, the first thing that strikes me is that it is out of focus. However, upon second glance, I can see that the glasses do indeed seem focused. However, since the face takes up more of the frame, and is the primary "focus" (no pun intended), the overall impression that one takes away from the shot is that it is soft.
More than that, though, her face color is very similar to to the background color in the upper third. This gives a very subtle impression of a lack of contrast. I'm wondering if a bw conversion would have helped this, or if having more contrast in the color version could have minimized it.
Overall a shot to be treasured for years. Nice work.
