you used a flash on this as is apparent with the slight red eye and the reflection off the watch. As nothing else seems important in this picture I'd crop around the lovely lady and concentrate on a portrait or "head shot" type of photo editing in Adobe or a similiar post production utility. Everyone will have different opinions and that's what photography is all about. Gary

Yeah, I agree with Gary in that everyone has their own opinion (and of course, everyone wants to be a critic). If I had shot it, I would have had her drop her hand because both the hand and watch are way too prominent in the shot and a closer to your on-camera flash which is why it appears a bit washed out. AND, if it's a restaurant, try and make use of any overhead lighting to give her a hairlight when the background is so dark. The red eye problem is caused by on camera flash bouncing off the the retina when the pupils are dialated (as in dark rooms). Change the angle of the flash to the subject or get a separate flash unit on a bracket and don't use the on-camera flash. Take it light.

When in doubt, Under-expose!..especially with digital. Blown hi-lites and digital are not recoverable since there is nothing to recover. Pete

Just an example of what you could do to salvage the shot.
