You've made my day! I've been wanting to go to the beach all day, and now I feel as if I'm REALLY there!

Very pretty picture, I like the water in this. Looks like someone is going to go have some fun at the beach

I'd actually like to see a bit more of the person, depending on where you want the focus to be. Right now I can't really decide what's the focal point and what's not. But I like the color contrast and the clarity you achieved. Nice work!

Hmm, her sweater makes me feel like this was a cold day on the water, but the sunlight teases me.

Although the ocean and sky dominates the portrait, the person's hand on the hip is the focus.

nice composition! I would like to see that shot with the focus on the sunset..

i really like the perspective in this shot. it's a little different. the colors make me happy also. it's very summerish... it's winter now and it makes me kind of... longing for the summer.
anyway. the only thing i would say is that i think there is a little too much space to the right.

Quite frankly this picture baffles me...
Was the focus of the picture supposed to be the girl or the ocean? Let me explain why this picture confuses me.
When I was teaching camera school, I taught to mentally place a Tic-Tac-Toe grid over the picture while they were composing it. Items that you want the eye drawn to when you look at the picture are usually found in the middles of the grid (middle column, middle line, center square).
Here's my problem: The optical focus in your picture is clearly on the person, but the way the picture is taken it looks like she was an afterthought. She's off to the side in the picture, there's far more ocean in your pic than there is person, and the picture was taken at an angle that we really can't see the person but know that someone is there.
The idea that this is a summer picture is well established by the ocean and sunlight, and if this is the purpose of the picture I would suggest focusing optically on the ocean next time.

I like the composition, but I wish there was more fill light to bring out the details in her arms.
I used the on-camera flash for this shot:

And it still looks pretty ambient, you know?
