Left you a comment... and this is the sort of change I would work for.

I just darkened the blacks a little more and sharpened her eyes. 2 seconds, I'm not sure if you like it this way, but I feel it's a good start.

Would you like a bit of a high key look? also removed some elements surrounding the model

I'd play into the over-exposure by using the diffuse glow tool. I also did a quick edit to get rid of whatever was behind her head. It was a quick edit and would need more touch-up.

LOL
Seems we all had the same idea to work on the image :)

I've tweaked the contrast, used shadows & Highlights and pimped the eyes and lips a little Marcus, decided not to move the object bottom right as it looks a bit strange without it.

What about these??? I'd love to see what you guys can do on these... I'm not that good at editing yet. But practice makes perfect I guess...

This one is tough, because of all the crazy tree limbs. No matter what you do, the photo ends up looking really busy with a lack of focus. Editing steps are in the photo details.



And... I had to.

Marcus, Marcus, Marcus!!!

Do a forum search for dead pixels walking ;)

The first shot had some merit to be worked on but those last two mate, well..... Let's say they are a little uninspiring heh
