Yunno nothing sharpens your eye like bringing these things out into the public.

I've reshaped the the contour of the underside of her arms. Brought the dark value under her left forearm and hand way up so that the arm and hand don't look like they're floating. (I think I was scared of the very light value at the bottom right so naturally I over compensated, a mid-value works pretty well.) I've reclaimed some of the bottom of her right arm as it exits the sleeve. And I've shortened and reshaped her fingers.

She looks better already. Am I allowed to critique myself?

I'm still working with a film camera so I'll wait to see what else can be corrected before I make another photo.
