Thank you for your efforts. I must point out one thing: Parvina has probably the whitest skin of any Pamiri I have come to know. Your version does not look like how I saw the scene with my own eyes. In this version her skin is the wrong color and is too dark. One other thing to keep in mind: my monitor is running at a luminosity of 120, and I re-calibrated it one or two days ago. Is your monitor too bright?
Thanks everyone. Of the versions shared, this last version is more like how I saw the scene. However they are all under exposed (I think I accidentally under exposed the RAW by about one stop). I still prefer my version, although mine might have too much red.
In future I can see myself producing one image for all the minimalists here at foto.tj, and one for everyone else
