There is no WTF factor in this, but it reminds me that although it's cold now, but spring is not that far off!
I would like to see more of the lovely model and less scenery.

Right on with the cropping suggestions. As presented one is not sure what the (focal) point of the image was intended to be -- landscape with a (almost distracting) nude girl; or nude alongside a stream. I believe the intent was the latter, and a heavy crop really helps.
You know, the cropping comments bring up a new question... (beautiful model by the way,...We expect more of her next spring!)
Back to crop.... Native DSLR is generally 3x2 format, ... But when you (any of you) crop, do you tend to stay with the 4x6, or do you crop 8x10/ 5x7/ square/ or do you free crop. I am a portrait shooter, so I may offer the client (or model) two or more crop versions with hopes they may order prints ... Comments??
If I am going to print for the model, I generally go for the 8 x 10 format. This is a habit from years of printing in the darkroom, and it generally eliminates any problems if they want to frame it. For my own use, I free crop, as I can cut my own mats and make my own frames.
Why I didn't crop the left side of this photo is a mystery to me, but the suggestions are all taken to heart. Right now I'm having internet issues, so I cannot repost.
It's a beautiful photo ....
I've never done any of my own framing .... Need to ....
