Comment by Hungaro:
good idea but to put your model in the middle with this shot is not a good idea. If you crop on the left (the wall) the photograph would be more Poison Ivy then it's now. do something with the reds on her knees.(clone???) you may use

not sure about the crop - her feet are cut off and the rock on the left is pretty overpowering

Aw, I wish this was a little sharper. It has a snapshot feel, but what a great snapshot! The model's expression, the reddened knees -- really great.

Not really meeting the challenge that well here, and the attempt at cheescake would have been better if your subject didn't have her hand in front of her face, and her knee wasn't cut out of the frame on the right. Shooting down at an angle hurt this one too ... try shooting straight across or at just a slight angle up towards the model next time ... the background would have been much better if the camera was lower when you took this shot.

As pretty as this girl is, I am afraid it's gonna take a little more to be able to say that this is a good photo. While I appreciate the good light, backdrop and overall pose of the girl, several elements are just wrong. The blown out light in the background, blurry face and awkward angle of the camera just spoil this whole shot. Did you get better ones from this shoot? I think generally speaking it could have turned out great, but the stars weren't in alignment for you on this shot. LOL

She looks like a terrific model and I really like the lighting and colors you captured. But 2 things. 1) Her eyes are gorgeous, but you have them blurred. Use unsharp mask if you usually don't 2) if you are going to have a model shove her chest out to accent her breasts, then make sure we can see the breasts. Her hair is in the way.

Too soft on the main subject.

Comment by Retroesque:
There are a few issues with this image. Firstly the models face is not in focus, which is a shame.

Her knees are strongly marked in red which draws attention to them andnot the models face.

The wall on the left hand side and plant on the right seem to draw too much attention also, so could perhaps do with some cropping.
