Simple Portrait

With the subject leaning back as she is, it looks almost as if the camera is tilted or the picture isn't straight on the wall -- makes me want to reach out and put it level. I don't find a single hot highlight like that on her shoulder obejctionable, however, so the main thing I'd do on a reshoot is have her sit up straight instead of leaning back, and reframe.

Altnerately, there's a hint from the position of her arms that she might be supporting her position with hands around a knee; backing off enough to show that would make the tilt of the head and upper body seem much less unnatural. Then if she could open her eyes a little, and there were a little catchlight, it'd be getting pretty good...

Thanks, Donald. That is helpful information.
