Sharp. Sweet, sweet light and a great BKGR. It is a bit cramped top and bottom, esp. the toes. Did you make any verticals? (You should have!) Great head angle too.
And welcome. (If you have a VERT, please post is below.)

I agree with Artie here, at the bottom it feels tight, I do like the horizontal comp althought it does need more room. Great light, great BG, lovely pose, details and color! CAongratulaitons!
