A) There aren't any shadows that would naturally be there

B) She is not the same size as the spot of ground (in relation to).  Looks like she is a giant

I am a model on hiatus, and decided to try some retouching of my own... I have permission to use these photos.. so what do you think?
Do I have potential to keep editing and create an photoshop wizard account?
I have bigger versions too of course.

this is the first image i have had trouble putting to a background, i even put the grass over her skin and it still looks cropped, any suggestions?

nice start

i'll give you a beginners opinion though
if you wanted to contrast these images as much as you have, I think it is important you should also balance out the tones aswell, instead of leaving them as yellow or red.
as for the background change, for the first time, well done, nice idea trying to overlap the foot with the grass, but it's hard to get right, you got to just keep practasing.

as for having potential for carrying on and furthering your skills
its your choice entirely
whether you enjoy using ps, learning new techniques, spending hours on it for a result. its not necciserily hard to do, but requires alot of time and effort if you want to succeed, in my opinion anyways

just my thought, as a newb myself
