It's really hard to miss this photo when going through your gallery. The size, shape and position of the crown is excellent, as the look in your eyes is as well. It's somewhere between innocence and 'you have no idea what I am capable of', and that is one of the essential parts of queen's charm <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)"/> I also like how the frame isn't too invasive, but still is quite present. Thumbs up for the chair in the background,glove, necklace and those little roses on the dress-they complement each other very well and contribute to the whole impact.
It's such a pity that the top of the photo is so exposed. It spoils the whole mood of it, and it draws my eyes away from the character. I especially feel sorry for the crown, it's really nice, but that light just killed it. Try taking the pictures some time before sunset, when light is softer and shadows are longer. It helps a lot, and looks amazing.
The other thing that bothers me is the angle. I know we all look absolutely fabulous from this angle, we look thinner, our eyes look bigger... but that's a Myspace-Facebook-angle, and it's totally wrong for this theme. And the theme is the queen, royalty, someone who is above us all, and that someone shouldn't be looking at us from below. Unless this is a cosplay in your bedroom and your boyfriend likes dominating characters that are usually far more dominant than he is <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)"/>( but something tells me that wasn't the point of this photo). Try placing the camera where you minions would stand (or kneel <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)"/> ) - at your feet. There is a lot of room for improvement here, but the good news are that you can do it <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>
