Pic related is me messing with it in Gimp (I ain't saying its any good; just proving that I was fiddling with it). Just a list of things I noticed/did:
>too cold for a sunny summer dayShe almost looks a tiny bit blue in your picture. Pic related is an increase to image temp with a tiny bump to red and overall saturation. I assume this is because most of her in in shadow.
>there wasn't enough glow on the subject and foreground IMOThe background seems super bright and glowy compared to the subject. I added a very low opacity circular blur to smear the foreground leaves (swirl was focused on her face) and a little bit of soft glow to everything. I think it brings the foreground and background in line "seasonally" (makes them both look like a bright summer day).
That said, this means her hair doesn't separate from the background very well. The bright blonde on top of the blown out sunny background looses its edge (at least it did in mine). Just changing the angle of the camera ever so slightly so the edge of her hair was over that blue would have helped IMO.
>Her teeth aren't lit rightThey feel dingy (and ended up a little cartoony in my edit). I don't know if you did a little work to them as well or what happened, but they lost a lot of definition. It might be lighting, tho its hard to say. What I do know is that without a strong highlight they end up looking flat... I tried messing around with them to add a tiny highlight, but it didn't look right since her face was in obvious shadow.
>blacks weren't black enough IMOI assume that means over exposed (I come from the world of 3d so exposure isn't something I've dealt with much). I bumped up the black in my edit, but tried not to mess with the contrast as the whites were alrdy white enough (especially after the softglow).
Any who... I like the picture. Was fun messing with it. Hopefully some of this helps.
