Thank you for taking the time to look.

I like the way her face looks a lot, well lit, orange glow, catching the light. The background works well, and the orange in the background, of course, echoes her hair, which is a nice touch. It's a busy and interesting background without, IMO, being intrusive. I like the overall composition and I like her expression and the way the twigs intertwine with her hair. My one hesitation is the shadows, on the left side of her face (her left) and especially down her arms and her breasts. The light drops off quite noticeably and the shadows read a murky gray to me and it's not a very pleasing look. I don't know if you dropped off the light in post processing or it was a natural drop-off, but it doesn't look as good as the brighter part of her face and the background. In any case, nice job.
