in composition having two majoy elements of light values side to side is a bit confusing to the eye as to the focal point. perhaps moving her to lean on the rock and still use the pose as is. then take the rock and only use 1/2 of what is there, that would bring balnce by extending the reach and weight of the darker right side. moving the shot down would give her eyes something to look at. as it is now, it is as if she is looking at a cieling because there is more than half of the image is below her eye. i hope that makes sense. sometimes i may be a bit scattered
well, thanks for the suggestion, but I don't quite agree. the wall is blurred anyway, the focus is on her and her expression. also, cropping the picture would unbalance the composition as I wanted it to be, with her slightly to the right. moving the frame would only make her gaze more outside the frame.
i enjoy a good conversation with a mind behind an image. i do hope you do not find me irritating in my speaking with you and wondering more on how you come to your creative process
