All comments and critiques welcome. I'm trying for a natural look without it looking flat.

Great shot! I like it the way it is...I would process it a little more, snaking the viewers attention across the bridge through the grass and off to the snow covered mountains.
  That being said it is still a great shot!

Hard to be flat in the middle of those mountains!  Grin

But the red in her clothing does stand out well against the greens and blues...

The gaps in the bridge contribute to the composition. Good one.

Great image!  This is how National Geographic wanted pictures to look in the days before it was reaonably possible to do so.  Everything is revealved, tonality and colors are gorgeous.  And it's got red fabric in it, tada!  And it's very engaging.  And it contains some interesting stories and even a hint of danger and suspense.  I like pictures like this a lot.  It's totally successful in every way and a delight to behold.  Not just a good illustration, but artful as well.  If I went to Tajikistan and this was the only good picture I got, I would be happy.

Stunning but very natural. You managed to take it at the "decisive moment".

Beautifully balanced and the colours are very revealing. Not too over processed, but not under processed either. Lots of wonderful details to pour over visually. And as others have mentioned, the action occurring continues to spur on the imagination. Nice work.

Thanks very much everyone!  When I come to make a print of it, I might experiment with the sculpting that Jeff S talks about in one of the LL instructional videos. I've never tried that kind of thing before.
