Awesome lighting... and your use of the color is completely wonderful. Your eye for composition is amazing - almost all of your images have very clever compositions!

I really like the design elements of this shot and the use of color to hold it together. The two tone hair is unforunate but not much you could so about that. I also would consider some adjustments to bring out the skin tone but you are pretty limited in basic editing.
