Very Creative shot. I'd say the best in you portfolio currently! By means of compliment, the set is well done, you've done well creating this remote location, there is a great depth quality and the mist is quite a nice touch. This Shot also has a nice composition and an Eastern European Photography style that I personally think is great and perfect for "story telling". Finally, the lighting and contrast on set are nearly perfect. Well Done.
By means of constructive criticism, having the skater sitting in the snow is slightly odd, given the fact she is in a short skirt, and the mist or fog would indicate warmer weather with melting and wet snow providing for quite a soggy bottom for the skater... Also, the untied laces??? I only mention these things because, I'd read your bio and it seems as if you are eager to better you photography. You clearly have ambition,creativity and diligence as can be seen in this set and photo. However with so much effort put into details as in this shot- best to have the viewer focusing on how brilliant your work is rather than noticing things like, "she's sitting in what should be wet snow - yuk" or "why are her skate laces untied, is she going to skate like that?"
Keep Shooting - All the Best...

Thank you! I built a set to capture the shot. Hopefully I will do so again in the next year and capture something equally creative.
