Perfect in light, color pose and moment.  I suspect we'll see this subject a few more times in the future.  All natural light, or is it an excellent facsimile of it?

Thank you very much Stuart! And like always it was natural light.

Outstanding use of natural light, great pose, wonderful colour. Maybe consider cropping off some of the excess backdrop at the top so her face isn't so centered. At least, that's what I'd do.

Not a bad idea Brent to underline her face! I‘ll give it a try! Thanks a lot for your advice

Another vote for "outstanding". Very well seen and executed.

I’m in agreement with Brent. Some years ago, I spent a weekend in the company of a remarkable photographer and human being, Giles Duley. At the time, Giles said that his preferred aspect ratio for portraits was 5:4 and often I find that works very well.

Thank you very much David I have to agree that the 5:4 ratio is looking good on this photo!

Thoroughly delightful photograph and very satisfying. Love the light too.

Agreed - I usually crop portrait orientated images to 5x4 - and, quite often, landscape orientated images to 16x9

Yes, good idea Paul. I also try it now and sometimes it is the perfect size for a portrait
