My friend asked me to take some pictures of her doing yoga so she could enter into a Fit Vegan contest. She won by getting her name and picture in a worldwide distributed calendar dedicated to Fit Vegans throughout the world. One of my pictures is in this calendar. But this is one of faves from the shoot. I just love the way it flows and the way her muscles show.

I would prefer it if she had faced the camera. It connects more with the viewer. The background is rather busy, so it draws some attention away from your subject. Maybe choose another bacground or throw it out of focus with a larger aperture. For me the centered composition doesn't work well, I'd prefer a more framefilling portrait view, also because she is pointing upward.
Nice image. I'm curious how this would look in a vertical format because of the way her arms are positioned. This would work well in a brochure or advertising flyer.
color a bit flat, nice lines, good texture, comp ok, light flat, I need to see the face to get a hint of emotion not the ass, dof ok, overall could be better
Nice capture. The serene background adds much to the composition. I would have been great though if you could have angled it so that dead tree didn't show right in the middle. 8
I think the centered position works well here, but I feel the hand is slightly too close to the top of the frame. I feel it should have the same amount of space, or more, than the space between the feet and the bottom.
The model creates intersting lines and curves. I'm not one who feel centering is a bad thing, but I wonder how this would have been offsetting the model to the left some.
