This was well done Mike. I like the lighting on the legs and hair, and the eyes are very nicely focused. If I could suggest, perhaps toning down the light in the screen behind and to her left as it seems to compete for attention. The screen directly behind her head is about right. Just a couple of thoughts.

Thanks for the detailed comment, Pioneer. I completely agree with you about the brightness of the screen to her left, but I waffle back and forth about how much I want to fix it. I purposely set the lighting to blast her from behind to simulate a little sunlight effect. I like how it acted on her hair, but i should have moved it more directly behind her. I'm not entirely happy with the highlights on the right side of her back and the shadow on her right leg. That change would have had the effect of directing the light more away from the screen to her left as well. As it stands, I'm afraid if I burn the right side screen, I'll leave it kind of dull and gray and the problems with her right side will look even more glaring. Such are the dangers of cranking up the lights for dramatic effect. Small errors turn into big ones.
