This is even better! If it wasn't for those pesky Dragons. Just kidding. If you would like to know more about Photoshop 7 or Elements just let me know. Great shot though!

Just a little tweak of the levels slide and there you have it!

Fill flash is very weak.Reflector ( gold)would work beter. Good luck!

ok, i ragged on the image you posted after this because it was somewhat unoriginal and had flat light. this image i really like for the following reasons:
the subject is clearly defined and no distractions.
the subject's pose is dynamic and gives this 2 dimensional image a sense of life that the other lacked. pases should be natural, but any easy thing to remeber, if there is a joint, bent it. elsbows, knees, wrist even the neck and torso are flexible. stiff poses look stiff. this does not look stiff.
the background seems sharper than in the other shot. this was taken a few minutes earlier i suppose and near dusk or near dawn light changes fast. so i am guessing you had a change to use a small enough aperture to get some depth of field. this is a place where a reflector in front of her could have bounced some of that wonderful warm light back onto her face. barring that, an off-camera flash with a diffuser would have done nicely. i might have added an amber gel to the flash to warm it up a bit.
keep up the good work.

Yea..you can correct it a bit, but starting out with good light is needed. What would you guys go for? A straight white reflector or a gold one to warm up the light on her?
If you don't mind, I've attached the photo with some color correction and curve work.

Fillflash or reflector... they might both help. Nice try.

A good backlighting, I agree to Lisa.

Probably wouldn't hurt to have a fill flash on the lady's face and perhaps a reflective sheet.

nice photo and composition, but I think it would be nicer if the lady was a little better lighted. Still a beautiful background and attractive layout -- and subject.
