to me, it looks too white/bright. like a glare.
interesting subject.
interesting background.
title?
weird. i dont really like how everything seems so out of place. where does the tree come from? that pose is so strange.
>>3012759
The brightness is blinding me.
Did you edit this with a blue light filter on? I'm on my phone in bed with it on and it looks like it's correctly balanced.

Pose is shite, looks like a slutty slug
Post processing is whack, too many skintones on her, red needs to be tamed, her scarf looks like aids, sky is unevenly colored.
Composition is lacking consideration, bottom 1/3 is an absolute mess.

Too fucking bright
Awful composition, and I think you actually had something here with the model pose. Change the angle as well. Go in either direction.
Also cool it with the sharpening.
Fixed it for you.

I'm not the fixing guy, but it's really limiting to work with the jpeg
So here goes:
For a digital shoot, this feels very clinical and wrong with the processing but that's not where the fault lies. I really wish there was EXIF so I could see exactly where it did fall apart.
Processing/Technical:
The tree is distracting, very distracting. While it's lovely to have a nice sharp branch the depth of field makes this feel very, very busy. This business is made worse by the abysmal processing and uninspiring lighting on the model to the point that she just blends into the tree. From the thumbnail her dress just blends into the tree too further accelerating poor choices all round. The skin is completely alien looking and again just blends into the blown mids and highs on the tree branch.
The depth of field and focusing is the big issue though, clearly it was a bright day and yes you had to stop down to take the picture but having such a wide depth of field is distracting because it makes me realise very, very quickly that you missed focus. While the photo appears sharp, you need only look at the face and the eyes to see that something went very wrong.
Shadows & lights. It's bright, I get that but these shadows are so harsh that it's unattractive. The exposure is so off that the black dress is far too bright but given that the exposure is fucked from the get go, no amount of PP will save this.
Composition:
Boring, model blends into the tree, shot from below while the sun is overhead makes her look like a ghoul, change your perspective.
All in all, buy some ND filters or something, shoot at a faster shutter speed, buy a reflector or bring along a piece of white card if you're going to be shooting someone from below. Maybe read into exposure and try to avoid some of these trappings.
Also: never, ever fall for the no exif thumbnail meme while uploading your >1 megapixel snaps.
how about mine good sir anon 2/4/17 ?

3 better options:
use a reflector
expose for her, not the background
don't shoot in shitty light
closing to 5.6 would pull the background in. instead of talking shit actually give tips that would help and make sense.
