I don't like it.
I just think the whole piece looks really odd and doesn't have much flow.
The flashes coming from the tip of her shoes look really out of place.
I preferred your previous image.
for most yea

yea my first one was the best. but thats cuz it had brushing fractals and pentool. these just have brushing
I'm not a fan of the background. The texture of it is good but I don't like it for this subject. The lighting seems off, especially around the legs where the glowing little effects are below the feet. It makes it feel really fake. They also kind of clash, and break the movement a little. If I was working on this piece, I'd make a new background as well as rotate the canvas to enhance the whole "leaning effect" and that would just make the piece a little stronger.

How can you rotate it anymore then that? maybe within a 5 degree maximum from what this is at, otherwise it would look silly, because her feet wouldn't be parallel with the bottom of the canvas making her appear to be falling over.

I don't mean rotate just the render, but make a new background entirely with a bit more distinguishable perspective and then you can rotate the whole image and crop it a bit. To me it'd make the whole "lean" stronger if the view is leaning along with the girl in the render.
Actually now that I look at it more, the render itself kind of breaks the flow. Mostly the 90 degree bend in the knees is what makes it look a little awkward.

That would be the same as rotating the render and building the effects around it really. I don't think the lean should be any more then it's at or it would look pretty silly. I haven't seen anyone able to hold themselves up with a 90 degree bend on their knees leaning much farther back then that. Unless she took a bigger step back with her left leg.
