Yeah, Steffi is a nice looking girl. You did great getting her to pose for you, some light in the eyes as well.
Could you try a version with less smoothing and the reds toned down a bit?
A starting point could be (I did it fast in PS CS2) to use the color balance:
Midtones: -15, +15, -2
Highlights: -25, 0, +3
Shadows: -5, 0, -5

After that it is not perfect, but you get the point of tweaking those numbers. :)

Nice perspective, colors and compo. The section with the drums looks a bit messy but the other part is promising for a photo like this.

Good use of the available light. Nice dramatic compo with the arms stretched out like that.

With a bit of work this could turn into a gem. It has all the basic elements of a good photo and the style looks familiar.

Excellent stuff, makes me long back to a holiday in Scandinavia, away from humans, back to nature. I'll wait untill the winter for that, same feeling, different scene. :)

Great time of day for a shot like this. A little curves and contrast changes could do wonders with it.
