Took this picture during lunch, then played with it in photoshop.

u shouldn't have colored anything other then her dress it would have a great effect.

I think the image would be better with a tighter crop, IMHO

I agree with the previous comments. Less red o the dress, leave the rest of her B&W, and crop it a bit. It's hard to say which would be better, putting her about 1/3 in from the left or 1/3 in from the right. Too cluttered on the right? Too bland on the left? I guess you can play with that if you like. But a tighter crop would be good, I think. But it's a good start and you have some good material to work with. :)
