I put these together for a friend...and I’m unsure as to whether or not I like them (if that makes sense)

Thoughts, ideas, suggestions?

Thanks folks.

Photo 1: You cut off her arm!!! She looks awkward in her current posture. Also very dark and the lighting is off.

Photo 2: Pretty good extract, but you lost much of the detail of the car's interior like the pushed over front seat. I was disoriented when I first looked at the after shot.

I'm with swampy on the first one, think you've missed the mark and the crop looks very awkward, I do like the second, but it seems to be missing maybe the midtones

Hmm, my monitor must be too bright then. I'll check it out. Thanks!
