Everything I like is present in this shot: The straws swaying in the wind, the beautyful colour of the sky and the gorgeous woman with her fluttering hair and skirt.

I like the exposition of her as a near-silhoet. It adds to the mystique: Who is she? What is her number? ;). No, seriously, I like that the viewer has to make an effort to make out the details (cf. my 'She Dance Alone' for a similar attempt). I also think the dynamic tilted horizon works for you here.

very nice :)
her posture is a bit weird which adds interest to the shot. it looks almost like a tribal dance or somethine. the contrast and colors are wonderful, but I bet you know it already...

Wow it is an amazing picture. The scene depicted here is ageless, and very moody. That woman walking, the transparency of her 'skirt' (it may be something else btw), that little sun leaning against her right leg. It is a great composition!

My only critic would be that it would have been perfect (but this is totally subjective of course) if the straw was not placed over the woman. If it could have been a little bit more on the right it surely would have added a little bit more depth to the scene.

Was this scene prepared? Or did you shoot it naturally that way?

Anyway, an awesome shot. Many thanks!
