This is my first critique and I hope you understand my english e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Smile)"/>

Well, the first impression I had when I saw this photograph was "wow amazing" I love pictures about nature and I love pictures in which nature and humanity combine and merge. And this one is one of them.
The model and the environment fits perfectly. And I think that the outfit of the model helps a lot. It seems to be natural clothes, and their darkness contrasts with the brightness of the field.
About the originality, I must say that this type of photo is very common (I mean the golden field as scene) , but you get capture your own approach.
And about the technique, I'm not an expert in photography, so I will say that, in my opinion, you used the lights and focused impressively, because you get the model stand out from the background while it seems that is immersed in it.

Good job!! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Big Grin)"/>

I would have to agree with this, but I want to add a little bit... the image, itself, is very stationary/still/what-have-you. Outside of the wind blowing, there's not much going on. She's just standing in a field, and her expression doesn't tell me much. It is very pretty and well done, yes, but that's all it is.

Which, having seen some of your other photos, is... depressing. I want to see that storytelling, again!

I agree with you, but I didn't realise before. I'm not a profesional photographer, so that's why I can't do a critique better than that.

I don't know photography for anything. I'm just going by the very basic art principles I know.

Plus, as a viewer, a still photo is a boring photo. (I mean no offense, Contra. I'm not trying to be rude/mean/etc.)

I feel that the background doesnt blend very well..its transition seems to be too quick. It goes from the model holding the plant, to the background being blurry.
The models make-up was spot on and the hair piece acted as a addition to the model fitting into the scene smoothly. The shirt goes with the make-up but i feel the skirt doesnt really match the scene and even acts as a small distraction.
But other than that...this picture is very beautiful! I hope you continue to make great work! (comment 1/10)

Beautiful! The colors of the outfit and the background are really well utilized with the makeup matching her clothes and the clip in her hair matching the field well. Her emotion is amazing, my favorite model of yours so far. She is good at displaying certain feelings.

Like the previous one, I also get a unique fantasy/ethereal vibe out of this picture. Something about the pose and the way she's handling the stalk of grain almost reminds me of a warrior holding a sword. The setting and the clothing work very well together, and the model strikes a dramatic pose. Great.
