    Good tone - the slight sepia I am seeing on my screen works well here.Nice grain - did you add it or is it naturally part of the media you used? I also like the cropping and composition. the only suggestion I would make is to burn in her left shoulder area a bit...

    I'm not good with posed people pictures but I like this contemplative pose. Some catchlights perhaps?

    The eyes

    My thought also - the eyes need some sparkle from catchlights to give more life to the shot. While the background is nicely blurred and simple, I find myself wishing the strong line (railing?) didn't intersect her head.

    Highlights missing and the bars cutting through her head are distracting.While it is good to have her chin resting on her fist the trick here is not to actually allow the weight to rest on her fist as it has compressed her chin.Otherwise i like it.
