I took this a couple weeks back here in downtown Yakima. I did a little dodging and burning and that's about it. Hope you enjoy it!

Phil,
I might have cropped this one from the left a little but it's nothing major. I like the wisp of her hair that imitates the wheat stalks...Is that wheat in Yakima?!?!?! :)
This model has incredible eyes, I hope you got some close portrait of her. Not sure about the copyright being so big, for TrekLens, its just to much a part of the photo.
I do enjoy this photo.

"Hope you enjoy it!"

Sorry, no. The pointless copyrighting is dominant and attracts too much attention, there is an odd appearance about her eyes, perhaps from excessive pp work, her hair colour almost merges with that of the wheat and it all just looks a little flat.

One person likes it, though, so my opinion may be wrong.

Hi Philip....nicely composed shot...nice details and tones.

Nice light, an appealingly 'in between' expression from your subject, she looks like she's not quite serious, not quite smiling. Good catchlights in her eyes.

Personally I'd crop a little from the left and top to eliminate some negative space.

I find the signature distracting, and superfluous.
