Nice job. The DOF might have improved with one more fstop.

the fact you have a lightsource in the background doesn't make an image backlit. main light source, as clearly visible by the highlights in her eyes and the shadow of her nose is from front left. I feel, by mentioning four techniques in the title, you weren't really sure what you did and wanted to leave the decision to the viewer. I'm not gonna fall for that but rate the image by the first three techniques.
