I suspect there is a reluctance to comment on what is probably a personal photograph and so has far more meaning to you than anyone else.

It wasn't the easiest place to take a photograph with very strong and contrasty light and a lot of cutter in the background beyond your control. I guess there was no opportunity to have the girl's face not in direct sunlight but as it is personally I find the lighting too harsh on her face. The colours are no doubt natural but by golly they are strong :).

You can see her environment and you controlled the exposure well to do that so you have a lovely shot of this young lady who probably means quite a lot to you.

Not quite sure what type of criticism you are looking for.  This is a nice snapshot which was exactly what it was.

I shoot with a Camera Obscura with an optical device attached that refracts and transmits light.

I'm with Mike on this. This is a very personal shot and that's not easy to comment knowing that this image is much more than the "bare" picture.
I might have cropped or cloned out the cable (and part of the pylon) on the top left, though.

Thank you for your comments.  I agree re clone out the distractions on the left.

I have a better idea of what photos to post here now.

Thanks.

Cropped a little but maybe now you lose context?
