Yes, I was going to suggest a crop too.  I don't think there's anything 
at all wrong with all the extra background but, given the angle of her 
body, I think the extra background area should be to her left instead of 
her right as shown here: <http://www.chucknorcutt.com/temp/maria_recomp.jpg>
As long as I was adding space on the left I also changed the aspect 
ratio to 3:2 but it could, of course, be cropped back to 4:3.  I also 
want to do my standard portrait skin retouching but I'll restrain 
myself.  :-)
