Pros: - - Good eye contact and light. - - Good height, in relation to the subject. Cons: - - I would have moved closer to the subject to cut out some of the busy foreground and to throw the background out of focus a little more. - - Would have moved a little more to the left so the trees would not be a distraction in the image. - - I would have either cropped the edge of the left column out completely, or corrected the perspective in Photoshop. - - The hair of the girl in white is a distraction to me, but may not be for others. I keep wanting to brush it away from her face. Most of the cons you could fix with this exact image by just cropping it tightly on them. Hope that helps.
