Gorgeous light. Nice head angle. Love the way the foot is raised with mud on it. I would crop some off of the bottom. Thank you for sharing.

It is rather elegant if I may say. All elements seem fine with me and crop wise I would also crop some from top. :) Well done! :)

Stunning light and detail, and love the strolling posture.
