great shot but her hands suggest stress or nervousness. but nice print
 
I actually think the hands add interest since they contradict her facial expression.
The light is gorgeous. The top plank is a bit unfortunate how it's positioned.
 
I really, really like this. The expression on her face, to me, actually seems a bit tense, and the knotted fingers reinforce this. Here we have a very attractive photogenic person nevertheless slightly off kilter. The way she's perched on the fence, can't be that comfortable. And yet she still radiates beauty and feminine grace. The hour glass figure, reinforced by the V and inverted V that her buttoned sweater creates leads the eye up and down the figure, to the hands and back to the pleasant but apprehensive facial expression. And her soft beauty in contrast to texture of the fence railings and old scratchy looking rope creates further subtle tensions. Sometimes it all comes together.
 
Tony,very nice print .... nothing more to add to what's been ramarked above ....
 
Thanks for the comments all. Lauren is great, very patient, even when the 10x8 comes out! I liked the location with the old fence textures, unfortunate that the rail dissects her, but there is always something isn't there.
