Its a nice image. I would definitely think about the grass, - Ive desaturated in the mod. It looks odd just because you have rotated the shot, and you wouldnt expect to see someone leaning in grass vertically. The overall tone is quite cold for me, and can do with being a little earmer, - as in the mod. The eyes work is good.

not sure about the grass but i love the diagonal across the eyes which are fabulous and piercing sharp. the expression is good too.
im wondering if a desaturated version or a mono would take the edge off that grass.
nice work with the layers etc though,

it's difficult not to be over critical.......am no expert, so just some opinions...grass isn't overbearing but does look strange once you notice it...perhaps you could substitute something else?...The eye..I know it's a natural `flaw' but she has a small speck in one eye...find myself drawn to it...it's a beautiful portrait anyway 
Thanks all
I was debating with myself about the speck in his eyes whether or not I should leave it in as it is something permanent that he has had since he was born, I think it's a birthmark (although doctors haven't confirmed this they just brushed it off when I mentioned it and said its nothing) that is the reason I left it in as it is part of him, something distinguishable about him.

This is actually very nice. A fine composition and my only criticism is that I do find the skin tones a little too light. Why you needed all the treatment beats me a bit. I'll bet it looks just as good with a quick histogram adjustment and smart sharpen.
