Noel,
great POV and composition !
The format/shape helps it too.

Well done.
Best regards, Behram...

Hello Noel ,
...great shot with very nice lighting control and nice tone colors, you play with the shadow and lighting very well here.
the models expression and pose look very great and sexy, tfs...

Hi Noel,

I like your idea, I like the composition - it makes the photo very elegant and clear. But there is imo one serious issue: you created inconsistent light on her back. On one hand there is very well defined left arm around the elbow, on the other the rest of her back blends with the bg. This creates discomfort for the viewer. The choices are two: or additional touch of light on her back to create slightly visible contour of her body, or completely hidden left arm. This is how I see it. tfs

Very nice work, I like the light and shadow. Your note doesn't mention PP work but it appears you applied some blur as well?

Nice job
Rew

AH but Marek, the light has hit the arm and not the rest of her back. Excellent Noel, something a little different from you. Nicely comverted and displayed. TFS,
David

Hello Noel,
I like this picture for this original lightning and beautiful composition. Even if it is almost a silhouette, we can see nice details and catch light. This is a sophisticated picture. Thanks!
Claudine

Hi Noel, this looks good. I know nothing about how to place models for photos, but whatever you did here, I like it.
BRAVO!
Janice
