Here is an edit.I like the shot overall, not big on her kinda facing out of frame, but maybe thats just me?

I did some levels adjustment, lightened the eyes slightly, blurred the skin, added a glow, added a mock film preset for the greenery, and dodged the face slightly. Not in that order.

EDIT: Oh, and I sharpened a little

But the post work IS your image. :er:
The edit looks wierd. There is a color cast, eyes look way over shaprened, and her skin looks plasticky and odd. The composition is weak.

What colour is the cast? I really can't see it on this monitor.

What do you think is weak about the composition?

All the negative space behind her weakens the image by adding nothing of interest or contrast.

Turn the camera to the vertical orientation for most portaiture.
