Something to Admire is what she is seeing, not that she's not to be admired. It's in those eyes, the desire to have, to achieve or obtain what she feels from that which she is seeing and it has a grip on her that she cannot hide. The moment is solely hers as to what's around her all a blur, persevering, her thought remains clear, free from the noise that surrounds her as if what she is seeing was there just for her. On the other hand, if the background is as it is because of an effect to put the focus on her is lacking just that. If it all was as sharp like the stitches on her jacket the viewer would still bring their focus to the depth in those eyes, the crisp softness to her lips and the red of her cheeks and nose. So to appreciate the light from the day and the chill in the air, your left with what is she seeing and that you caught such a piece of time with your camera!!

This is a very charming photo. The light is soft and beneficial to her gorgeous features. I personally like the concept that you used of blurring the background to put more of an emphasis on Cindy. That is often a misused tool and the background becomes too distracting or takes away from the subject of the photograph. Your use of it though really came together; and In this case I think the dimness of the colors in the background really leads viewers' eyes to her own eyes and it makes her face really stand out. You are drawn in from a busy background to a sweet and angelic like face.
Her stance is different and a creative twist on a normal idea. It's not your typical boring picture of a person standing. Her placement and the position of her shoulders leaves one trying to interpret her body language.
The title is actually very fitting because of the smile in her eyes. And admiration is a word that does come to mind because she seems longing or dreaming about something. Overall I love it.
