WHAT WENT WRONG    
           
           
      typically these kind of shots should have straight horizon. a bit opened up exposure might have been better.
 
 
           
      The woman in the foreground was not really required. Moreover it was not a very good idea to knock off the head!!
However having someone in the foreground as a frame is not a bad idea but is looking too abrupt here.
 
 
           
      although a very creative and innovative attempt. the black thread and the finger is taking away attention. you can actually get rid of that in ps.
 
 
           
       i feel the position of the arm and the expressions (there aren't any actualy) are not going well together. the spontaneousness is missing in the photograph.
The communication between the model and the photographer is not there!
 
 
           
      this kind of atempt needs a lot of practice and expertise. ofcourse you are at the learning stage as far as photoshop is concerned. The idea is nice but the execution is bad. not at all up to your standard. It is clearly showing as a cut and paste job. Also the lighting is all wrong. Lighting is right for the model but wrong in relation to the background and the seting sun (or is it the rising sun!)
for this kind of a situation you could have used a realtively stronger light from behind and a softer light / fill light from the front. also the hair area needs to be handles very carefully. The mountain etc has become grey in the photograph. if it was left darker and rather black it would have looked better.
 
 
           
      Because a very short focal length has been used, there is a lot of distortion as the face appears much larger than the feet. the photographer is taller and has taken the picture from a higher level, face being closer and the feet away.
