Hi Geary

I think that the background is fine now, and the only thing I will suggest is to lighten the shadow under the mouth. By looking at the photo you see that the shadow is lighter near to the lips and darkens as the chin round under. The shadow should be lighter than the one by the nose.

And then hurry on to the next one.

Allan
