This is a shot from one of my friends, we did an impromptu shoot-she has no prior experience except one other shoot with a different photographer friend last year.

Well, I see the idea, but to my personal preference the girl is way too underexposed, I would've brighten her up a bit and darken the sky a tiny bit :) Aaaand I suggest you not to cut the picture on elbows :P Good job tho :)

Thank you for the input!

I second the elbow crop, but pose is good, and lighting is good except for it really could use a fill light or reflector. If you don't have one, get a big white reflector and play with it. It can do amazing things when shooting someone against a sunset/sunrise.

That is something I do need to get!

I agree the elbow crop and as Joseph said, a reflector or even just a large sheet of white cardboard would have made an amazing difference. Nice work.
