I like the pose, it is enhanced by your use of lighting. It seems the model is a little dark, perhaps jump up the brightness a little. Upped brightness may also bring out the tie a little more. Nice crop, and I like the border on this shot. Good job.

Very interesting idea. The slightly textured bg works well however I think the model might be too close to the bg, the shadows are a little distracting.

Nice focus and dof. Good colors. Nicely done.

It looks like the crop should shift a little to the right. Nice lighting and shadows. I like the tones of the skin and sharpness of the jewelry. Nicely done.

Shadows

Comment:
I like the crop, the eye naturally follows from the upper left to the lower right. The curves and use of space are very nice, the model nicely offsets the bg and the bg nicely offsets the model. The lighting is very good, the shadows are excellent. The focus and dof are perfect. Well done on a very good photo.

I like the crop, having a lot of the sides of the model clipped adds an interesting dimension to the photo. The lighting is good. IThe skin is a little blown out in some spots but that adds to the contrast between the model and the black background, it works well. Good dof and focus, I like the crispness of the hair. The white fleck in front of the knee, once noticed, is distracting (sorry to nit pick). Very nice capture.

Ahhh, a fellow heliophile. I like the smile, lighting and crop. The variations in the background are somewhat distracting to me. Overall a nicely done photo!

I think the selective desat adds a good contrast to the b/w, however I think the red is a little too electric-red for me. Nice use of soft focus.

Alright, I laughed. Good focus on the ... kitty. I wonder, besides the obvious answer, what is holding the kitty's interest. Good use of dof. The red bg is somewhat distracting for me. Overall a a good image.

Nice lighting, very dramatic. I think a crop shifted down a tad to include the left-hand fingers is in order. Good use of shadows and excellent expression on the model's face. Well done!
