Did a shoot yesterday with Liv. Found some bluebells so...I just couldn't help myself. I wanted a slightly darker look to this so yes, it's been through PS. While I was working on this I decided to flip it. I think it's interesting how a photo works differently when you do that...
ISO 200 and 1/350th at f2.8
Thanks for taking a look. Have a lovely evening and drink sensibly

A square crop might work, but I like it how it is - a good use or the rule of thirds. This image would also work if Liv was looking into the camera. Although this has a dreamy feeling to it. Nice image.
I do like the figure looking at the bluebells. have you tried a square crop? just a thought.
di
very nice, and the darker presentation works well.
The rotation is an interesting question, - I assume from many topics Ive read that left to right is a more "pleasant" and normal flow, - but I find that the one you see first is the one you consider "normal" and the second seems odd, - just mu experience.
Square would work also.

Thank you, Mark
Thank you, Di. I'll try a square crop 
Thank you, Lisa
Thank you, Challice
Thank you, W. That about the one you see first being 'normal' is interesting because I find I'm prefering No. 2 (the original direction). Left to right is probably the more pleasant as a rule because we (in the west) read from left to right. Unless I make a conscious decision to do otherwise, I usually place my subject on the right. I suspect that has something to do with being right eye dominant
Great colours Simon and the flipped version is very interesting....
