Outstanding and very well lit skitting pretty lady.

The details are so impressive and so the colors, the DOF is so powerful that the whole image is so clear and the expression on her face is so pleasant and attractive.

Beautiful image, thank you for sharing it and wishing you all of the best.

Thanks Rashed, with these critiques it is not a problem to share...

Thanks Pierre.

Regards.

White balance is a bit yellow, but you did a great job on the pose and expression.

Les, I am grateful to you for the observation , I will bear it in mind. Thanks.

I commented on your other skating picture and I notice the same elements with this one:

I think it could have more punch – please see example.

But thinking more about this:

It might be you are shooting just a little underexposed when using that spot meter. If you are metering her skin tones then maybe open up one more stop – I think that will give you more useful dynamic range to play with –

If you are using the spot meter on the ICE – then that would explain the artefacts I am seeing (eg: top left forearm). 

Perhaps you are attempting to correct an underexposure with your post production? (i.e. if you are metering the ice and using that to expose - you are way underexposed)

" An image is equivalent for thousand words ", improving the dynamic range, the photo improves. Thank you William.

You are welcome.

On a side note:  she just has the most wonderful smile - she just must love her skating: her happy personality burns through the screen.
