you've put a '.' in the wrong place in your link which has broken it:

link should be:

Great shot, but she's lost a foot and the sunlight in the back of her hair reduces the impact.

I agree about the foot and the sunlight. The focal point really should have been her face but to me it looks likeherknee (but Imay not be seeing it as well as others as my netbook has a terrible screen). I like her pose and you have thrown the background out of focus, so this is a good 1st attempt.

Thanks for the comments. I think maybe I need more help

How should I have focused on her?

It is a bit of a fiddle at first but once you get the hang of it it becomes a bit quicker , if you open your image in your gallery and right click the little mag glass in the upper right corner then left click copy link location , then start a new thread and in the new box that pops up for you to write in there will be an icon button for inserting an image , click on that button and yet another little box will pop up left click inside the box and hit paste and OK .

There are more in-depth descriptions on how to do this in the Q & A section but as the site is about to go through a make over all of this will change .

As for your image I rather like it , I don't mind the foot being out of shot or the sun light in her hair and the soft focus along with the really nice pose adds to the calm serene atmosphere .
