This is certainly a nice shot, but something doesn't seem right to me. It may be that the lack of contrast between the subject and the background makes it seem kind of flat.

Beautiful. It's a shame there's another one so similar :). The duotone is beautiful and soft, and well exposed. 10 from me - lisae

Comment by jmsetzler:
beautiful image :) The soft lighting and overall softness of this image is working well in this 'portrait'. The angle of the lighting does a nice job of highlighting the muscule structure... great shot! = 10 - jmsetzler

This is very beautiful. The lighting is just right and her skin is very very smoothe which creates a pleasing subject to look at. I think it may be more sensual if she were wearing some kind of soft cloth such as sick or rayon instead of what looks like a towel. Yup, I see pencils! I could hang this in my livingroom. Great photo. Good luck in the challenge.

Comment by Gordon:
very nicely done. Good soft focus/ finishing, love the blue tone, very subtle. Interesting pose, certainly the best out of the 'pencils in the hair' shots. Perhaps the shadow on her back is a bit too strong and could have been softened a bit with some fill light ?

If she had moved a few steps away from the wall, you probably could have avoidied the shadow, but I don't know what your lighting source was, so that may or may not have been possible. I like the composition and the lighting, but not so sure about that earring...
