First off, the colours are gorgeous. The green grass has this blue, cold feel to it, as does the model's pale skin. The fading and shadows at the top of the photo gives the entire piece a bit of an alone feel.

I love how the model is set against the blades of grass, that she is pushing them down so that they create this interesting diagonal angle against her face. I like that the focus is beyond the grass in the foreground, so the viewer feels as if they're looking for something, and there she is!

I do, however, wish there were not so many blades obstructing her face. The grass on her chin sort of chops some of the flow of the piece. Her left arm is a bit awkwardly obstructed as well.

Looking at the photo right ride up (horizontally, that is) gives a different expression to the model. Rotates this way, she is a bit forlorn. There's a tenseness in her jaw that, were it released, would make her expression more intense but less uncomfortable.

This is all I have to say. Mind you, I'm really not a photographer in the slightest, I just attempt to give as much constructive feedback as I can! <3
