You are so fortunate Luc*, not only do you have a lovely girl, but she is also willing to pose for you and have you put up the photos in a competition. :)

* I have a very good memory for faces (not names) and remember her from the galleries of your site.

I like the composition of this but the light is a bit strange, too harsh on the background. The contrast just doesn't work so well for me. 7

I'm thinking the white balance is off a bit... Either that, or a case of over saturation. At any rate, the hue of the skin is too red for me.

Lovely shot...skin tones look a little on the red side, but that could be my monitor. Well done, hope you do well with this...
