lovely photo. the only thing that bothers me is the that some of the edges of the silhoette aren't smooth, especially at the lower stomach, hair and lower arm. i loved everything else about it.

Though I completely love the concept, I would have liked to have seen a little tighter crop on the right. It just looks like there is too much light space there - it keeps drawing my eyes away from the figure.

I do like the shot, love the silhouette look, and the expressiveness of the woman, and especially love the color treatment. 9

Very well done, great lighting and foreground/background contrast. The pose is lovely, but I keep thinking she is unbalanced. I don't think it's the pose, but rather the empty space in front of her. My guess is that vertical full-body framing would have turned this very good photo into a superb one. 8

I like the graceful pose of the model. I also like the backlighting as the sole light source for this shot. The composition is ok, though I wonder if placing her out of the center could create an interesting dynamic.

Very nice, but a plainer curtain would have made this more interesting bby focusing attention on the model.IMHO. 7

I love the lighting, the posing, and the shadows. There's some wierd fragmenting on the harsh edges that may be due to some processing issues, but could also just be from a reduction. Good luck.
