Contrast is very good here, although highlights not as powerful as they could be, but thats just my opinion. A tighter crop is what I thought of first when looking at this, but the blackness brings out her face.

Very good moody image, emanates depression. I think of the days when I had a bad day in the office, or a quarrel with a loved one would cause anyone to jump in a tub without removing their clothes. Sitting in water is relaxing, stress relieving and the floating ducky would put me into a daydream.

Excellent job on the lighting. There's a tad bit extra blackspace on both sides and perhaps this would be a bit stronger with a crop, not sure. Only commenting, I gave you 8 at first pass.

Side note: I was going through some boxes of old magazines and found an article about artists throughout time based on a scientific study. Supposedly they used to take an eye and put it dead center, and it appears you've done that here.

Thinking about this. Isolation is good. Centered eye with light?
