OMG 2 ribbons in a week. My name in the front page 2 time. Really happy.
Thank you for the beautiful votes and comments and expecially thanks for the suggestion.
A special mention to ScooterMcNutty: until he comments I didn't see the awful halo around the arm and the book. Sorry for that, but with my monitor I can see it only watching the picture with a strange angle from above.

What I like:
- Beautiful light
- Reminds me of the painting Christina's World
What I don't like
- It's a bit posy for me. I, at least, don't read books at that angle looking into the sun. But, alas, the light is so pretty you are forgiven in my book (but I still kinda wish it wasn't quite so posy.)
Overall: I want to adore this photo but the pose is a bit too contrived.
this is really lovely. Though i see were you may have missed perfecting the color of the grass. it looks like you didn't finish masking around the edges of the book and her arms.
I do however love that she is in a red polka-dot dress and the colors are wonderfully saturated/vibrant.
good luck!
Beautiful light and subject. The composition is nice as well. The only thing that jumps out is that it seems a bit set-up and a bit slanted clockwise. 6
