I don't really photograph people, but I do enjoy reading threads on this site and learning about it. Couple of things I picked up were backgrounds. Pick your backgrounds wisely. i.e no horizontal lines going through the head or vertical lines coming out of the head. While the first image is quite nice, those bars popping out of her head are quite distracting

Good points. I have been working on paying more attention to the background, in all of my images. It is not second nature yet, thank you for pointing it out.
