I love the concept and the effect of the light shining from the Background.
The Location is well chosen, too - it's a great contrast to the innocent look of your model.
Absolutely well done!

Mersi!
E moara lui Assan, pe langa Bucur Obor. Sari gardul, fentezi cainii si tigani si ajungi la ea.

The idea is good, and so is her pose & look (and probably the setting too). There is too much contrast in this shot though. The walls and one side of her face are underexposed, while the other side of her face, arm and leg are overexposed. I suggest a reflection screen (or possibly a fill flash) to lighten up the dark side of the model (while at the same time, preventing overexposure with a faster shutter-speed or smaller aperture)

Hey, thanks for the comment!
The thing is, the picture was taken with a flash used to fill the picture just as you have said, but I wanted to play with a more contrasty style as it seemed to look more interesting like this. It's something different from what I usually do.
I'm not saying you are wrong, just that I like to play with different ideas.
Cheers!

I agree. This is a lovely shot, but it could have been made so much better by avoiding such a high contrast.

Hey, thanks!
Just as I answered B0rrach0, the contrast was intentional and done in "post-production". Be it good or bad, it's something different for me and I wanted to experiment a bit.
Actually, I think that if you saw the original you would say something along the lines like "technically much better, but not as interesting/ lovely anymore". That's how it appeared to me.
Thanks for your comment!

Haha, cool! Then the photo achieved its goal if it made you think about it for a little while longer!
Glad you like it!
If you're interested in seeing more photos of Maria, feel free to check out ~The-Number17 's gallery. She has a few more photos from this shoot. She's the one that invited me to come along and I only took a few shots so I won't get in the way.
