I think the colors are gorgeous, I would like it better with some sharpening. Nice!

Overall I like the photo. the yellow strip in bottom right looks weird though. I don't think you were pointing the camera quite where you wanted, though, as her face is further away than her knees, which are in better focus. (Or have a greater DOF).

Ammmmmazing shot! Love how the sunset shines on her face and hair. The cloud behind is amazing too.

However, I think it could be improved if you contrasted the dog a little bit so that it would be darker (but not too dark). Also, you need a little sharpening on her face because you focused on her jeans.

I might have moved her into the right third. She's in the middle of the picture which bothers me a little bit in this set-up because she and the dog don't fill the frame enough to be in the center. It doesn't seem to bother anyone else though...it could just be a me thing :-)
Good Luck!
