The thick white border overpowers the photo kind of. ;-/

Interesting composition, nice tones.

I'll have a think about the title.

This one is very original. I really really like it. I would crop the photo a little bit at the bottom, though.
The selective focus and the off-center placed girl are amazing ideas.

+10!

(the title is ok)

I agree about cropping a bit from the bottom.
Very nice composition and the B&W works with it as well
Well done!

To get more springly colors or felling of the spring i would use partial desaturation, so that I would leave flowers or blooms in colors. That would give this image a boost. Nice tho.

Nice image - strong contrasty tones but good depth in the mid-tones too.

I'd be tempted to crop in a little from the right (a) to remove the twigs stiking out of the border (not being attached to the main bush they are a bit distracting) and ( b) to position the fruit on the leaves in the foreground into the corner of the pic and give them a bit more importance in the composition. Might trim a smidgin off the top too, to rebalance the proportions of the image after the first crop.

Will ponder on the title!

Hm... wie wäre es mit "Blossom into beauty"?
Ich mag den ungewöhnlichen Fokus sehr und auch deine Bildaufteilung. Es sieht ja fast so aus als wenn ihr Kinn auf dem dünnen Zweig im Vordergrund liegt oder sie aus diesem heraus erwächst.
Schönes Bild.

Nice black and White! Wish there was a little more focus on the model. A bigger f number maybe.
