Very nice perspective. Maybe a bit more contrast and what is going on with the light on the right. Takes me eyes from the subject.

A little bit more of her face would be an improvement, otherwise, it a lovely photo.

I actually liked the head position..however the angle of her elbows makes the one look really odd. Have her relax her elbows a bit...otherwise I think the lighting looks great. It's a mood filled shot. Nice work.

Thanks for the advice, we are going to try again tonight, when the kids go to bed.

I like it better without the light thing. Can't wait to see what else you come up with.

The present shot doesn't jump out at me. I love the pose, I love the wardrobe, I even love the hair. But at its present state, it's as if the shot can't decide whether it wants to be b&w or color. While I'm normally a huge fan of b&w, I think I'd rather see this one in color. If you were to continue playing with this particular shot, I'd throw in a saturation layer and see how much you could saturate it before it started to look artificial. Then retouch the levels to give yourself some true blacks again. Compositionally, though, this is truly evocative.
