I tend to take several shots of the exact same pose mostly to ensure one of them is in focus anyway - so any slight possible motion blur should be eliminated as well.

I would have posed her where there wasn't a board (or whatever that is) intersecting with her head, but otherwise the composition is nice and simple. I'd also pull back just a tad bit on the vignette.
Thanks so much for your honest input! I will tone down the warmth of the photo. I'm not totally sure why I had the ISO so high, I think I set it when we were inside the dim mill and forgot to change it later. I will remember that about the board as well. I'm still trying to train myself to be completely aware of the surroundings.

Agreed. I need to remember not to forget!
