I mostly like this picture alot. I think you did a great job with the colors on yourself and the look, the expression and the posture. It looks alive and real, which is something I often miss when watching a model standing in the water and try look like she's not freezing. (For what I know the water might be warm and you just look like you're freezing because it's the concept, but in Norway the water is quite cold most of the year, which makes me think that the water always is cold) Usually, when putting models into the water, they don't seem like their freezing, even though they might do. That's interesting, because it's more realistic, and at the same time I wonder why you are in the water if you're freezing.

The picture looks clean, which makes it good to look at, much because of the colors on the model. I'm glad your dress is white and that it's so little of it, and it's so tight because of the water - so that I can see your skin through the dress. Because it's wet, I believe that you have been all under water, and are now on your way out of the water again.

I want to come back to the colors. Red, white and blue. The blue water, the white reflection in the water and the red thing in your hand. The colors comes two times, the first time strong, the next time weaker so that it doesn't get obvious if you know what I mean. First the blue comes in the water, the next time as the eye shadow. The red comes first as the thing in your hand, and the next time, red-ish on the lips. And the white dress, which comes again as the light reflection in the water. This tells me, of yours, when one thinks about it, that this is a concept and not a "real" situation. It has an aesthetic value, which in my view makes it art.

I wonder what the thing in your hand is, and that's the one thing that makes me a little frustrated. I can't see what it is, if it is a kind of flower or something to put in the hair?

Don't mind the stars to much, it's only stars and I don't really get it, but I think you did a great job as model and stylist. Well done!
