For me, simply, it needs cropping drastically.

It need less on the right of shot, and much less on the top. Centrally placing a figure will make the figure 'stagnent', changing the crop with add more dynamism.

The shot is quite nice.

I would like to have seen some more light on her face, - theres some fall off where her face is darker that her legs.

The purpose of a crop is not to have it tighter, rather to have the shot balanced better, so the subject if off centre, on a third. To achieve thie, I cropped space on the right, and also added space to the left.


Ive cropped, lightened the face, added a little contrast and sharpened a tad in the mod.


Hope you find this helpful,



Regards



Willie

Hi Lee
In photoshop open image and duplicate layer.
Now open a new blank layer.
Go to Layer/New fill layer/Solid color.
Pick any colour to fill the layer.
Change the blend to "Soft Light".
You can now click on the colour squre on the fill layer and change to any colour that works best with your picture, browns works well.
Hope this helps, any problems let me know.
Robert.
