The lighting in #1 is mediocre. It's underexposed and far too cool for my taste. Shadows on her face leave my eyes wandering instead of engaging.
I love the shot in #2, but I think stopping down to like f/5.6 of even f/8 probably would have been best. The out of focus knee on the right (her left) is making my eyes bug out a little bit due to the pattern. But I do love the lighting in #2, although her lackluster post is a little too lackluster.
