There are a lot of really great visual aspects going on in this piece. I love the softness of the background, and how the rims of her cheeks glow. The vibrance of the photo is tastefully creamy. And the model is obviously very very beautiful <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=" (Smile)"/>

There are however ways that this could have been improved. What distracts my vision the most is her hand and how long the photo is. I can't admire how important and beautiful her face is because my eyes keep going down because the hand is just as in focus as her face. That confuses me about what is most important, the still hand or the emotion of her face? Because her shirt is white, more light reflects around the hand instead of her face, making her face have not enough light reflecting.

I would argue that the feather and her face are more important than the hand because they show emotion and are central to the piece. I think the photo could be made better if it was cropped into a square, cutting out the hand completely.

Her eyes are piercing but they should have more light in them, they are almost too dark to notice the color or the life in them. It takes away from their full dazzling potential. Another point, is that while the piece has the creamy/soft factor going on, her cheek lines are very dark and sharp in comparison. I would lighten the darkness on her face too. This could all be easily fixed with some simple editing though.

Your vision is very beautiful, overall the impact is very nice, but there are some things to be done to reach fully outstanding. You've almost got it perfect though. You have awesome ideas and vision.

Hope this is helpful at all, this is just my opinion from a humble artist.
Thanks,
