Nice...but i believe that the central attention point of this photo should have been the girl....but the eyes wander over the whole photo on the first look after focusing on the girl ......

Good try

I agree that the girl should be more of a focus. I'm a noob, but I really think that photoshop being used to bring out just the color of her sweater or something to bring the focus on her more would look great. I do really like composition, looks great.

I find the shot to be very busy and cluttered looking. The girl is almost lost in the image. Don't really care for the vignette.

The B&W conversion is nice but I wonder how this shot would look as a sepia-tone.

yep, the girl is lost in the shot. If she is wearing bright clothes a colour version may be much better as she would pop out of the greyness of the tree.
