Very nice depiction of a bright, windy, warm day. If you take this into Photoshop and use levels to darken the darks a bit, it really makes it much richer and stronger. Try it and see if you like it better or not.
Would have found this more appealing with her right arm down and the blowing scarves behind her, or more turned towards the camera. While this is about the wind, the subject should still be seen.
Composition could have had her turned towards the camera but in the same spot or more to the left with the scarves falling in the left upper and lower quadrants.
Interesting. Not sure why her eyes are closed - feels a little strange that way. The photo also seems a bit washed out and overexposed. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.
I had an idea of something similiar to this but, didn't get time to go do it. Probably wouldn't have been as good as yours though. I would have liked to see more space in front of her and just a tiny bit less space behind her.

Kudos on being creative with the subject matter. I think the over exposure on the girl works because of the concept/title. I would have liked to see that idea pushed further, maybe by making the entire image extremely overexposed, so over exposed you can only see some details. Also, I think the idea of the wind could be more emphasized. You could use a slower shutter speed so that the scarf and hair has motion blur. Just a thought.
Nice use of the subject and scarf to convey the challenge criterai. The image is a little overexposed (too bright or washed out) on the front of the model.
