Andrey,
I think that Bonfim has a good point when he say that we should only consider a photo as a "reference" and not slavishly copy it.
The changes you made is all improvements.
The most common mistake, when copying from photo, is forgetting that the photo was taken at a certain distance from the person. If that distance is, say 2 meters, the perspective in the painting will only look right at a 2 meters distance. When viewed at 5 meters the far parts will look too small.
I see that you enlarged the models right arm for that same reason.
This is only one reason why a photo should not be trusted blindly. Others may have additional comments.
I think that this is a key problem that should be explored deeply, since so many of us use the photo reference.
