I like the way the shallow dof creates a slight blur around the edges and the high key appearance is done well. Bumping this one up from my original vote.
This is so close to beautiful but the focus is not on her eyes/face. The sharpest part is her hat. Great color, composition. Love the frame filling hat. Love the snow falling. Her face looks a little too smooth - either overexposed or too much post-smoothing.
You may well have wanted the focus on the hat - but it doesnt work - i'm drawn to her eyes and the rest puts it into context - would have preferred sharp focus on her leading eye, at the moment it looks as if it is just infront of her eyelashes... :( Very nice shot in every other respect tho :)
