Larry P, I am surprised you don't recognize her --- she was the Hawaiian Girl from last year. She is just as beautiful here. Great soft lighting. The background is a little distracting for me, but it does tell you where she works. And I am not sure if that jewelry or the clothing exactly says "Renaissance Festival" but the photographer has no control over what the subject is wearing in this instance. Even with those distractions you have still made a nice portrait.
Yes, I remember her from last year too. I tend to agree with Cindi, maybe the background is a bit too in focus. There are those software packages out there that allow you to add selective focus and bokeh, this might be a good candidate. But lovely portrait of a lovely lady as is.
I work in the industrial distribution sector as a salesman for a master distributor of valves and fittings in Houston, TX. I am a member of the Bay Area Photo Club which meets at the Art Alliance Center at Clear Lake in Clear Lake Texas on Tuesday nights. I shoot with an Olympus E-3 and my favorite lens in my Zuiko 12-60.

Nice light on your subject Larry. Pleasing composition.
