WOW. I guess I'm not surprised about the majority of comments, but I totally find the contrast and harsh lighting to work REALLY well. It's different. It's fun. The lighting gives a fashion/editorial feel. I can see this is a magazine. I really love what you did with it. I had given it a 10.

The lighting is a bit harsh for my taste. I do like the dynamic range of the background. and the pose.

Nice shot. The light is perhaps a little bright and harsh. You need to soften it by using a light former, or reflecting off something.

I am drawn to this originally I wasnt fussed with it but it grew on me Maybe the shadow area is somewhat too dark for my liking but it is a stunner the top right corner to me would also needs brning in

The posture and comp look like it could be in a magazine, but the first thing I thought of when I saw the picture was how blown out part of her face was, then the same on her chest. I think if you fixed that you could be onto a winner though.

Great use of lighting.
Nice crop, good choice of background colour too - really makes the colours stand out.
Superb skin tones and great soft textures on the red elements.
10.

way too much contrast, lights are blown, no drawing left in the shadows. otherwise well composed, good expression
