I love what I see here, but I don't see enough. The crop is driving me crazy!

More dreams.

I agree with John, too much air. I suggest a square to square-ish crop which would place the head pretty much in the center or slightly below center. Lighting is very very good, the flesh tones seems a bit on bluish (on my monitor) which is okay if that's what you want. (The bluish flesh tone fits well with the overall coloration/scheme of the image. This may work well in B&W.

PPS- I appreciate you seeing and taking a bold framing approach instead of a traditional and safe framing approach.

In this case the trees are far from being dead space and give the overall feeling to the image. The girl seems a bit too separated from the background. I not sure if that is because of the lighting (background vs girl) or because all of the background is out of focus. But, overall I am liking the image.

Lots of tension here (maybe it's the double expresso). Square crop eases my mind.

I edited it on a calibrated monitor and I know I thought that I left her skin too "warm"... I don't see "bluish"

I appreciate your suggestion about square crop and I was aware that most of photographers wouldn't agree with it, while I was taking the photo but I think this crop adds a certain tension to the message and I'll leave it this way

I hope it was a nice love story
