Is the color off or is it me?

Pretty hard to improve on perfection...that is, the pretty lady and the beautiful dog...but, this rendition seems to me to be the best of the lot, so far.
Personally, I'd crop the left side of the picture so the tree trunk was the border rather than the somewhat distracting foliage alongside the tree trunk.
All in all, a most charming picture with two gorgeous subjects.

Slow day so decided to take a stab at processing this photo... So difficult for us to accurately compare because of inconsistencies with how we have our screens/monitors calibrated. I have mine calibrated with Colormunki so this is my take...
Edit: Gotta click on download to see it properly..... :)

It must be said that I am NOT a professional photographer. I belong to a fraternity and one of the members wanted me to take some pictures of the inside of the Lodge Room. I did and
was disappointed with the outcome. I would have needed some special lighting umbrellas. When I submitted the outcome to the friend who wanted them, he insisted on "More Color", "More Color". I ended up adding so much color that the work (in my opinion) looked terrible. It was then that I realized the problem was with his eyes and mine. I need glasses for reading, using the computer but all else, I'm 20-20. It was then that I noticed a major difference between his eyes and mine. I therefore suggest that you submit your work to a youngster who does not wear glasses of any kind.
My father never went to the eye doctor. He used store bought readers. Nearing the end of his life, he finally did have his eyes checked. It was then he learned he had cataracts and after the operation, his eyesight was nearly perfect. He passed in April of that year. He was 89.
Then compare.
Good Luck,
Ted

I feel that there is to much overexposed white, and it is a little soft.
Expeirmenting in PS CCloud (w/downloaded .jpg), I duplicated the layer twice, (Filters/sharpen) slight Shake reduction applied, (Image) Contrast and Brightness diminished, and a radiant mask applied to the third layer. Cropped after cloning out some blownout white in T-shirt. Arms now have color to match face.
