Now this is stunning, and yes, you do have a wonderful photographic eye.
I love this one, and I guess as you first entry, I don't think it will be long before you get a ribbon, if you present images like this, and with this sandard..... Well done mate..... |

Yes, she does have spectacular breasts.
Neither I nor the model take offense...she is rather proud of them. |

| I like the pose and the tones. I like the way the light is focused on her and shadows on the corner. The model is extremely well endowed. I do think I'd like more light on the face but I can see the artistic angle on that. What I don't like is the shadow on her left shoulder. |

Greetings from the Critique Club :o)
I'm not really sure I can give a critique that really gives this photograph justice as I have NO experience in shooting portraiture, but I will do my best to tell you how this image comes across to me and I'd be more than happy to refer this to someone with more experience if you feel the Critique is not entirely helpful.
Composition
Simple composition works really well, I like the fact the subject is off-centre and in my opinion the spacing on either side of her is spot on.
I also like the way the cloth placed over her has many folds and creases and I especially like the way it has been wrapped around her right arm as this symbolises comfort.
Lighting
It is quite apparent that this is the real strength here and the soft lighting really adds a lot of depth and character to this image. I have noticed one person in particular has already commented on the fact that they would like to have seen more lighting on the face, but I do not necessarily agree as I think it provides and element of mystery.
I like the backlit background but I can see certain areas that look like air pockets in the material and I find these slightly off-putting , but this is only a minor niggle.
Conclusion
You have chosen a great model and she should be congratulated!
It looks like she has a tatoo on her right hand side, I wasn't sure about it at first but the more I look at this shot I like the fact the tatoo is visible as it adds more interest in the scene. Both lighting and composition are technically very strong and there really isn't much I can fault.
Keep up the great work :o)

| Thanks for the comments folks. Some suggested using a bounce card to put light on her face. I considered that when I shot the image, but decided against it. I wanted her face to be more in the shadow than out. I didn't want this photo to be about a specific woman, but more about women in general. If my finances improve, I'll join up as a member, and post the whole series for your review. |

| Lovely model, wish the was some more lighting on her face though or that this shot was b/w cause then the lack of lighting on her face makes it more artistic in b/w. |

| I keep coming back to this shot and bumping it up. I liked it from the start but it just seems to be growing on me. I think it is the lighting and simplicity in the composition that gives it a kind of purity that is very beautiful. I cant come back any more though = 10 |

| I really like how the light skims her cheekbones and her face is mostly in shadow. This is artful. I wonder if a levels or contrast adjustment would bring up the darker tones a bit more. Maybe just my taste. This would be lovely in black and white as well. |

| well composed, good color. light is a bit harsh, a reflector had been useful to brighten the shadows in her face and on her shoulder a bit |

| Nice capture - Interesting light. Wish there was a fraction more room beneath her so the robe did not get cropped off (Or give the effect it was) |
