Wife on a trail

[SGT Lito]

Hello everyone. I'm new here and would really like to improve my photography, but think I need some critique to help get me there where I would like to be with photography.

Looks pretty good as is but the exposure is just a tad off giving a slight green cast. Probably due to the camera trying to pick the right White Balance.

I set a warmer WB and a slight levels adjustment in the midtones to bring out the details in her face and lower the exposure a tad. Then ran a high pass filter to gain sharpness in her eyes.

What do you think?
