I wish there was space between the hand and the frame. I would be a problem if you want to mat and frame. You will lose a little more hand. It is a beautiful photo.

Meir Samel is right about the need for space by the hand, but it's not such a big deal to me because the focus of the picture is strongly held by the subject's gaze, and the object she's gazing at. Idealy, yes, there would be more space. If it's going to be framed, you could work around it, though, by doing what's called "floating."

 

When printing this, just include a large border, like a full inch, or more, and then have the over mat cut a half inch larger than the image. For example, if the image is 8x10, cut the mat to 8.5 x 10.5. This will allow a 1/4 inch margin of white border between the image and the mat which causes the picture area to appear to float within the matt. See the illustration, above. If you're using a pre-cut mat, you'll have to print the image so it fits within the mat's opening with something like 1/4 inch on either border.

 

It looks like you're uploading bmp files. You'd get them on photonet quicker if you used jpgs. Your image here was 5 Mb when I downloaded it to make the frame. The same size jpg would a lot smaller, maybe 80-150 Kb, a big savings in bandwidth.

Beautiful with very interesting light.
