Hope you like it :)

I like the angle, sharpness, head turn and eye contact and might lighten the eye a bit. Did you use flash?

[Amy Marques]

Nice work. I agree with Axel's points, and I'd like to add that my eye goes to that little red object on the grass. I might want to clone that out.

[Ákos Lumnitzer]

Very pretty surroundings and colors Arash. I like the simplicity actually. I agree about the red leaf or whatever that is, a little distracting. :)

[arash_hazeghi]

Thanks guys, I improved the eye and took out the red leave. I did not use flash I got lucky with light :D

[Ramon M. Casares]

Stunning, great light, detail and colors although I wouls suggest desaturating a tad the tellow channel.
Congratulations!

Sharpness and angle really make the shot, RMC has a good suggestion about desat in the yellow channel.

Beautiful, very painting like image.
The color are a little bit saturated for me.
