    Hi Steve,

    A classic pose. I see a blue color cast which can be fix in Photoshop. I would like to see a little more DOF but since your shutter speed was 1/60 I rather keep a good image than none!

    Sharpness looks very good for 1/60. I like the head angle and BG, too. I might add a bit room at the bottom and raise the color temperature, the whites have a blueish tint on my monitor.

    I like the pose and the BG as well. The head turn is nice. The color cast as was said is easily fixed.

    Beautiful composition and pose. I would try some dodging on the side of the face and neck

    Thanks for the comments and suggestions. The bluish cast was much more visible on a different monitor than it is on my home one.
