Absolutely (as people say these days). Now you've a classy photograph. Doesn't the extreme crop work well? It actually looks like you were aiming for a less posed, environmental type shot.
Best wishes,
Andrew

This is really good. Moving the lady off centre has really improved the composition and got rid of distractions.

Brian, when you follow Uncle Andrew's advice you won't go far wrong! The crop has turned an average shot into an excellent shot. Personally, I find the lady's sultry looks most appealing and thus she makes a fine subject!
