I think it works. A little more light to bring out the edge of her hair against the dark bg would have been nice IMHO. I like the bg treatment. I also wonder if she needs to be looking into more space.

Thanks for the comments, guys. Looking at the image the day after I am close to concluding it's overcooked and not particularly interesting. When I feel the urge to create I should pick up the camera and stay away from Photoshop

I like it Paco, obviously PP was intentionally done so with that in mind the question is "how well is the PP?" I think it works nicely, not overdone. Time well spent. I do agree with Mark on the lack of space on the left.
