She's got great expression, especially in the eyes. I think you did a pretty good job capturing it. Just wish it was a little sharper. Would have given the photo much more of an "impact".
Personally I would have also given a little more space on the right (which might help accentuate her outward gaze).

Good job nonetheless.

p/s: I'm pretty new at photography, so take it with a grain of salt.

Welcome Joseph! I agree with it needing to be sharper, but her expression is a wonderful catch. Nice dof and the little catchlight in her eyes.

for me the bright lights in the window kind of ruins the mood, but despite that it is a great picture...

Thanks for the critiques!

I definitely understand the sharpness part, thank you!

Interesting that we have one person who would like to see more of the outside, and another that would like to see less. I guess part of my problem with my composition of the shot that I was unsure of what I wanted (I halfway-ed it.)

Anybody have any other stances, composition wise?
