There are a few things that could improve this image.
1 is the crop. If you cropped a tiny little bit lower, then the finger wouldn't be cut off.
2 Is the lighting. On camera flash is a big no no. even if it is high.
3. Get your model away from the background, at least 2m or 6 feet then you won't see those ugly shadows. And you can throw the background more out of focus.
4. Those folds in the background make it look like a hastily rigged up blanket hung up. (Though I'm sure it isn't)
5. Show us the eyes. Seeing the eyes in an image adds a lot to a picture like this.

I think freshing this up in PS (levels) and not using a photofilter, and ironing your background, this would've been better.

Very nice composition. I like the shadows as they add up to the image

Comment by spaceman spiff:
The photo seems a little flat to me - little emotion, not very interesting. A good nude photo often seems to have high contrast and good shadows to exaggerate a beautiful form - this doesn't have that.

very bad flash shadow. Seems like a P&S photo.

Would be better without the harsh shadows and wrinkles in the background. Nice concept though!

This is a lovely landscape, I love the light on the foreground hill and the shadows of the clouds in the background. But I think the clouds themselves are a bit over processed
