Photographing Pareidolia
"Pareidolia is the tendency for perception to impose a meaningful interpretation on a nebulous stimulus, usually visual, so that one detects an object, pattern, or meaning where there is none.*"

On the road
It looked like a pursuit, but in reality, it was a peaceful movement.

Needs Work!
I see these comments on many photos - BTW - those who are putting comments like "Needs Work" should elaborate to say what is needed according to them.

Hi, Don!
Beautiful photo!
The mood is nice, the pose, and I like very much the composition and color.
For me, the only problem I see is that the hair blends with no separarion with the background.
Maybe a subtle rimlight should be needed.
Regarding of the pose, both forearms are perfectly symmetrical.
Maybe I would try to crop from above and left.
Overall, I think I prefer the second one, there is more connection when she is looking at the camera.
Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks! The blending into the background was intentional. I actually liked it better. Added more mystery. Zero distractions to the subject. Crop was to taste. Didn't want her falling out of frame on the left
