This would be very nice were it not for the brightness level of the lower left corner - that takes the eye away from the subject.

Otherwise, the lighting, exposure, color balance and depth of field are all very good.
The composition is very static and might have been improved by using a vantage point that places the subject more off-center.

Nice picture - congratulations!
