I'm finishing up my black and white body project. Here's a teaser. I need to know though, is it sharp/in focus? I can't tell if the shallow dof (f/4.5) is making it look OOF.

I like it. Focus and DOF look good. I can't decide if it's just a little dark though. Wouldn't mind seeing it with the hand a little brighter. Might give a little more pop.

I brightened it up and posted the new version in the OP. Thanks for the input.
