Hey! Thank you for submitting to for our theme-assignment!
You've captured a very lovely scene for us today! Since you submitted for feedback, here are some suggestions I have for you:
- One of the first things I notice when looking at your photograph is the bright green flare at the bottom. This has happened because the sun was shining directly into your lens, which causes reflections on the pieces of glass inside it, which show up in the photograph like this. Sometimes it fits, but, in this case, it's quite distracting from your subject, the girl. However, there are a few ways to fix this, or prevent this from happening. The easiest way to fix this, is to crop off the lower piece of the photograph, up until the bottom of the flare. When full viewing your photograph, and scrolling up so it doesn't show anymore, I really like that composition, too! If you like, I can show you how I would crop this, just let me know. The second way to "get rid of it" is in post-processing, by cloning the back ground. However, this is a looot of work, but if you want to keep the space, it might be worth it. 
To prevent it, you can try to turn away from the sun a bit, so it doesn't hit your lens at a direct angle, or, if it fits on your camera, use a lens hood. 
- The second thing I notice is that there is some noise. Though, not distracting, it is fairly present. You can easily remove this with a noise-removal tool. If you don't have one, or your post-processing software doesn't have it, you can find a free one on our Photography Resources List .
I really like the idea of this photograph, and I definitely think it has great potential! The pose and the clothes of your model are just right for the theme, and the beautiful sunrays are like a cherry on the cake! Great job!
I hope my feedback helps you, and if you have any questions, please ask! We're happy to help!
