Love the shot. Beautiful woman, great pose, expression, focus and a nice gaze. Great choice of B&W.

The background is interesting without being distracting.

A couple of comments, she is leaning a little to the right, and I would like to see less foreground but that is my taste.

Good shot indeed.

be well,
joe

great photo! I would agree with that there should be less foreground, however, if the photograph were mounted the amount of foreground you provided would lead your eye up to the subject really nicely, its just the fact that its on a computer screen and so large that it appears to be too much. Keep up the good work.

To remove some of the unnecessary foreground whilst keeping some of the dimensions of the photo (i.e. not crop to panoramic photo) I'd suggest retaking the portrait with an intentional diagonal composition (head at top left, feet at bottom right), maximising the full-body size in the image whilst also giving it a different perspective to the portrait.
Indeed, well done with it and excellent work with the PP.

Like it as is. Another alternative is to move her forward with more blur building in the background? Nice pic.
