Erin backlit in a stream

I am wondering what everyone thinks of this portrait. This is

another model that was very easy to work with. I am also wondering

if my crop is eye pleasing. Thanks for comments!

I like your use of the available lighting. It plays well off her hair, almost a halo effect. I am assuming that you cropped the bad reflection off the water. However, the squat is not the most flattering position for the model. Great use of light but not an attractive pose.

like it better if she had a reason for crouching. is she picking something up? is she bent to beguile the viewer? it's just not clear- though she is very pretty and it's a pleasureable picture all around.

I like it, the presentation strikes an interesting mood, as if we are interrupting the model. It might show better if the left and foreground were cropped close to the model. Nice work.

I would have liked this nice photo better if the bottom left of the photo was not as bright and that she had a smile on her face. Also, her head is at an unnatural angle imho. take care.

I agree, her head is just a little awkward. Everything else is great, especially the exposure and backlighting. Overall, a good shot. Thanks.
