Selected the background and used levels on highlights and medium tones to decrease the luminosity. I think it works better for the model.

What do you think of this crop? I'm not sure if the simple black and white conversion was a good idea, nut I like the crop.

I did a very simple BW conversion because in my opinion BW is more suitable for character portraits. Especially here, the colors do not add too much to the picture. I am sure you can generate better tonal ranges using a more elaborate technique. I increased the contrast just a bit, sharpened the eyes and cropped to a square format because you have a lot of empty space in the original image. I think that the eyes stand out a bit better now. What do you think?

Black and white version of the same image. The conversion was simple, by selecting grayscale in Photoshop, and boosting the contrast slightly. Which one do you prefer?
