I think the colors are quite good. The models skin tones are excellent and the eyes and lips really pop. I especially like the softness of the lighting. I do wish the model was slightly more to the right of the image to emphasize the diagonal line, instead of dead center. And the hands, as someone has already mentioned, could have been placed better. Finally, a bit more shadow might add more depth and make the overall image come alive and not seem as flat. But overall I think the image is very strong and has wonderful colors. Good job!

A third critic for this photo. I'll repeat the same beautiful comment.
Cold blue backgroud is perfect for winter time effect and it perfectly contrast with the tendre warm red tone of this lovely face. Hair are realy amazing and the blue eyes perfectly fit with the icy blue background.

However, something disturbing me. At the first sight, this photo shouts "It's winter time" but the model is summer dressed and seems not to be cold ! Never mind ... it's a contrast, I love it and it's probably why this photo is striking me and you.

Something else is disturbing me. The snow !! It's not real. Just an edditing snow. Ok the effect is well realized with big and small one. But there isn't snow on the model and no snow between the center of the model and the lens !!

After this critic I want to say that I like this photograph and thus I fav it!!
