* Larger aperture for more subject emphasis.

I find the background - the orange stuff - distracting, and would have preferred mayb e a different angle, or maybe a tighter crop, because of that.

I agree 100% with what Gary has said and thought it before I read what he had suggested. The orange tape is an eye sore and detracts from the girl.

Touche David, the orange distracts, but good subject matter nonetheless.

Possibly go black'n'white and/or clone out the fence if there's enough detail in the plant matter in the background. Depending on the image size, you might also go landscape?

Other than that, yeah, what the others said 8) Nice pose.

The new crop is an improvement, however, the tones of her pants and the background are too closely match. Shame you couldn't ask her to remove them? :lol:

You are right. Normallly I'm not a fan of B&W but it's definately made this one look a lot better.
