Very well lit with fill flash, and the fill light, if any, with external illumination looks flawless. Perfect pink to orange gradient that blends well with the shawl or scarf. Skin tone is well balanced and glare and shadows are well managed. I like the framing and the atmosphere provided. No negative critiques here. Anna, I have seen a lot of your photos posted, however this one depicts true character and appeal. The timing as well was right on target for capturing the sunset there on the beach near Athens. Looks very refreshing. Keep up the great work...
Just Perfect...
