These look good Linda! I would work a little more on the range of tones. There is too much of a jump from the darkest area on the right edge to the tone to the left of it. There should not be any stripes of tone – one tone should smoothly transition to the next tone. Same with the highlight. It is too much of a stripe which means the tones flanking it are too dark. That is an easy fix by using your kneaded eraser to lift some of the flanking toning. You may have to go in again to smooth out any of the areas you just lifted tone from. Small adjustments and you will be there!
