Photo Modifications

An attempt last night to shoot an improved photo over what I currently have in photo #2 was unsuccessful. I would move the lighting around to the right to rid myself of the cast shadow of the nose onto the cheek only to lighten the darkeneed side of the face. Once I was able to get close to what I was looking for the pose just wasn't there, at least not as good as what I currently have. I chose to go ahead and incoporate the changes that Mike suggested by lowering the neck-line and taking away some of her body width. I also took Marvin's recommendation of doing something with the cast nose shadow, so I removed it from the cheek and left it just to the left of her nose to give it definition.I really like the look that I have going here (with the suggestions incorporated that I have received so far) but if any of you think I am completely off base please say so.

Linda: Great point comcerning the inside corners of the eyes. I made a value change on the photo but it doesn't seem to show up as much on screen as it does on my printed photo.
