Happiness

If anything, I might desaturate the green a bit, but that personal taste.

Id crop it to get rid of those bushes in the top left and use rule of thirds.

Cute picture! Great expression!

The green might be a little too green and I'd take out the bushes via crop or clone stamp. Whenever I have a photo with a ton of green, I try to tone it down. If there are other earthtones in the photo (brown, yellow), I try to bump them up. That's not really relevant for this photo...but just for the future. In this photo, I'd probably just use an adjustment layer (curves or levels) for the green and then layer mask the subject.

Crop it and keep her in the left third. Desaturate the entire photo some, pull the green back, pull the contrast back a little, then maybe push the red/magenta some. I'd have to play with it but that's where I'd start.

I like it. If I had to nitpick I'd clone out the top left bushes, pull back the greens a tad, and lighten the shadows on the face a little.

Definite crop needed

Next time maybe a little fill but don't sweat it

Thanks for the advice. I only own LR, not PS. Are you talking about layer masking in PS?

I meant like fill flash or fill reflector or somthing. Just something to throw a little light at the subject. It will get rid of some shadows and give a catch light in the eyes.
