The framing on this - the idea - is superb. The only thing I would change is maybe either cutting off her eye completely from the frame or putting it dead center in the middle of the second off-screen eye. The only reason is, I think the little pink of her eye and the curve of her eyelashes leads the viewer out of the frame without something to really catch onto before you do. I think half an eye would be just enough interest there to keep the viewer from leaving the composition. This eye movement is emphasized by the way her hair falls across her face. (toward the right hand side of the photo.)
Also, the focus is off, just slightly - her wisps of hair in front of her face are crisp, but her eyes/face are slightly out of focus.
The exposure is perfect, and I can tell you gave a lot of thought to the background, even if it's out of focus, because it looks great.

you have brought out the beauty in her, very nicely done, what you have done is exactly as you meant to do it, all the emphasis is on the eye and the flower
awesome!

I like the crop and the idea. I dont like the softness of the image and the shadowed/yellow teeth. Also seeing just a little of her eye that is barely peeking on the right side is a distraction. A slightly increased DOF would have done wonders.

Beautiful shot and beautiful model. I like your composition, but I would've kept the bottom lip in. Or at least more of it. I don't know why, maybe it would seem more...complete. But the focus is really on her eye. The colours are fantastic.

close to the perfection mate. a lil'issue with either DOF or focus--not sure. great composition, colors, sumptuous model, hair, skin tones, look in her eye. I would have totally cropped her left eye however. you're going to be an influential photog' soon doode!
