I am new and this is my 1st post for cc. Please take a look and tell me what you think. Thank you:

Photobucket

Just looking for advice of how the shot looks and if I could have made it better.

It looks good to me, maybe on the cool side as she seems slightly pallid. Maybe add a bit of light at the eyes, too. I like the comp and expression.

I really like the composition. I wish her eyes had a little more light on them. And I agree that her skin looks a little cool.

Perhaps you could also make the eyes slightly more similar sized? Her right eye is a little vertically lager than the left.

I like it a lot, but I can't see a larger version in Photobucket...the link doesn't take me to the picture. but I think if you dodged the eyes a little bit this would be fantastic. Really love the compositon.

Next time pull the hood rearward a little bit to allow more light into the eyes.
