you shot these photos at f5. They should have been sharper.
Also they would have been better is you used fill flash

In my view, the technical aspects of a photo are secondary to the content; after all, when one looks at a photo first time, one looks at the photo and not the exif file.
This photo strikes me as being self-contradictory: Here is an image of a young lady in a casual outdoors setting, casual clothes, sneakers. etc., who seems to enjoy being alive and young and healthy. So far, so good.
Then one is taken aback by the very heavy makeup (heavy red lipstick, eye makeup, etc.), which conveys a totally different -and opposite- message, and ruins the "casual, young, happy" message above. The absence of a smile compounds the problem by reinforcing the very differet message of "I am trying to project an image of a sophisticate who is savvy in the ways of the world".
That same image would have been great with zero makeup and a care-free smile. As is, it is not.

Hi Sir Rational,
You have a good point.
Thank you for critiques and comments, i will take note of this.
How about the settings of the photo?
I am afraid that these look like typical 'snaps'...
First one, some sort of branch growing out of her head. Second one the prop does nothing. I am more interested ins the large mushroom in the background than the subject. Sorry.
Crop much more, remove the tree from the head. Sharpen, etc.
Very rapid, sloppy fix. Late at night and I don't have time to do a good job, you can do better than this.

I'm more concerned about the fact that it looks like she has a fire hydrant up her bum! That's an awkward pose and does not look comfortable in the least.

Laying on the ground with her feet up on the hydrant might be the ticket. But agree folks don't sit on fire hydrants.O M G...I C it now. :-O
Maybe seated with her back to the plug would have been better.
