nicely timed . A touch perhaps off the right ? The image could take a bit more in the blacks with curves adjustment of blacks to say about 8 to 10 ish.

I have to agree with Mark on this one Jeff as on my screen this looks very flat though I can appreciate that the lighting is soft anyway. It also looks as if it could do with a touch of sharpening. Lovely setting and great pose.

A nice image Jeff. I too must agree that it looks flat though!
