 This shot was taken on a rainy afternoon on a porch in Austin Texas. The woman is modeling vintage clothing for a shoot. I thought it would fit this challenge perfectly as she has a far away look in her eyes.
This image was cropped, sharpened, contrast, brightness and color tweaked. I used the clone tool to remove a few freckles. It was then resized.

I thought you did a great job with this quite lovely portrait. Such pretty light on a very pretty face. As a couple of comments alluded to, while she is "All Alone" it might have scored better if she looked a bit lonelier.

beautiful girl in a hat, but I don't think it is great for this theme

Very pretty girl. Like the bokeh. Nicely executed. The stray hairs in the back could have been cloned out, as for the few stray in the front. I think that perhaps a slight more angle (facing closer to the photographer) would have been good. I don't feel the sense of loneliness, maybe if she was hanging her head slightly? But I think it's a great photo overall. Nicely done!

Her expression is animated and interested... not lonely.
At least... to me.
