Wow, that red is almost too red. Still lovely nonetheless. Great lighting. I'd like to know your lighting setup here. It looks great.

I don't know.. placement of her hands (sexy) doesn't really fit her face looking down (shy). crossing her arms around her breasts might have worked better for me.

I'm never too sure of the modesty poses they seem to deform the body she looks lopsided the red cover lifts the B/w but agian it seems to be on its own there for effect sorry if I appear harsh but this is one challenge where the compitition is awesome and the benchmark is high. Howevr you have a terrific model and probably better images than this 7

Certainly a beautiful shot, but a few things jump out at me. The selective desaturation works well for this particular image, but the skins seem to be overly smooth. I think you went a little heavy on the NeatImage. As far as the pose in concerned, the placement of the hands feels a little "forced". The expression is great and the model is certainly beautiful, but the forced placement of the hands takes away from the overall "pensive" feel to her expression.

Comment by Spork99:
The red totally kills this shot for me. The image is no longer about the expression, the light or the pose anymore, it's about that blazing red thing. You have a lovely model, the focus should be on her expression, her pose, her form and how the light plays and interacts with them.

Without the red - 8

With the red - 3

Yes, I think it's that obnoxious.
