Thanks, Robert.
This really is beautiful, and gets a UA from me. But I'm going to disagree with Robert, I want to crop a slice off the left side. Reasons: to place the face further off-centre, to have her looking into the frame; because that heavy darkness is like a dead weight dragging my eye away from the face; too much space behind a face (human, flower, building...) risks being wasted space. I also want to get rid of that little triangle of light top left.
I hope you won't be offended by that, it's how I see the image. But it's your picture.

Thank you for the feedback. Re: Holding her breath - I know what you mean!.. it felt like a fairly breath-taking moment 
. Re: Cropping the image. Certainly worth playing with - thank you. My intention here was to show the full scope of the moment - from light to dark, but I can see what you're saying... worth an edited rendition, I think.

I feel the darkness on the left is a natural 'ending' for the light graduation from right to left, and adds balance to the frame, too.
Thank you, Rich and Saltire.
Thank you, Bane, Coz and Daisy.
Many thanks, Chinga and Walt.
