Interesting how you got the right side of the body to meld into the background.

Nice use of shadows. I also love that you let her keep her glasses on. Most models don't seem to do that. *shrug* I don't know why. I also hope that the high-key effect was done in camera, but I don't know.

I like the way she disappears into the light. Not sure about the shoes and/or glasses.

The glasses are killin me. They sort of slap a cooler, business-like...studious air over an otherwise soft image.

nice pose, but a but too high key for me as her right side totally disappears on my screen

I like the high key effect, but not fond of the blown out area.

I wanted to say that I wasn't a fan of the lighting on the one side of the body, but the more I look at it, the more it strikes me as a unique and interesting technique (purposeful or not). Reminds me of an unfinished drawing. The 'tease' of shadow that occurs at the slight opening of the legs is, if intended, a daring and risky choice.

Pretty cool processing. I really like how each person has their own edit.
