That's a mysterious nymph. Almost a little bit scaring. Nice shot!

@Alphons: Yes, she is a little predatory ... I had the image of a wolf in mind for her eyes.

Well the eyes have it in this shot. Incredible - icy
I love how the leaves perfectly frame her face - the one on her shoulder
and under her chin - great impact.
The whole composition, lighting and color works together
for one little masterpiece :)
