A bit structure-y?

Hi!

So I have a few shots like this and I'm wondering what you think about the backgrounds - if they work?

or should I keep the green?

Should I do any cloning with this one?

Background to me seems more suited to an outdoor corporate shot than a fashion one..

I prefer them without the shrubbery.

definitely 1 & 2 over 1A
shrubbery so dark and smaller it blends in with her hair. without it she is separated from the background really well.

That's what I was thinking too. Do you think the second one should have the shrubbery cloned out as well? And what do you think of D7K's thought?

Without the green on both. Lower angle on 2 not as attractive as 1. Nostrils are seldom attractive. On 1,try rolling the hand to the inside slightly, lowering the thumb and revealing more of the hand keeping any fingers long. Adds a little more femininity.
