    I like the pose and eye contact. Too bad the sun was not behind you and I crop the dark band at the bottom. I would also crop a bit off the left and add a bit space on the right.

    The repost looks better. Maybe even a bit more space at the right. Maybe something like this. I increased the saturation and added canvas on the right and applied a bit S/H.

    Thanks Axel, still not up with that aspect of CS3 but you saved me looking through my TIFFS for the original pre-crop image.

    Nice reposts. This is one of the cases where the inverse curve would help. Check out the how to in the Educational Resource Forum :)
