My sister Tracie posing for me. I had this idea for awhile & we finally got it done a day before the deadline for the contest! I really like how it turned out.

well, this sure beats the version of mother nature in an lazy-boy, nursing a sixpack. oh, wait, i confused her with father earth. splendid image, if a little blown out on the right. the softness is appealing. hope this does well for you. good luck!
Centered composition seems unimaginative. Skin tones a little purple, the white balance needs to be on shade/cloudy to counteract this. Nothing seems sharp. Bad flare at top right. Not sure about square crop. Too much clutter in background, eye is not sure where to settle.
I think you could emphasize the nature aspect more in balance with the "mother" aspect by addidng a sense of depth to the image. Perhaps putting the chair on an angle and off center... There's also a significant chunk of blown highlights in the hair which distracts from the overall image.
