some tecnical error, crop on the foot,not a great sharpness the lights can be better (more soft the shadows)... the shot can be better. the model is beautiful(I liken't the ring on the finger) I think that will see better works in future. 5
I'm sorry but if you had this very hot girl at your disposal for a shoot, and this was the best of the shoot... The lighting here is very poor. Nothing is really in focus. Maybe you were going for a soft focus approach, but it's not working here. Strangely I think this would be about 10 times better rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Then it would be a sexy pose even if it would appear as if she were hovering. Sorry to be harsh, but I could kick you for teasing me with this pretty women and not delivering.
I can't really tell if she's on the floor or not-? Looks a bit awkward but at the same time kind of neat too. I guess my main criticism is the lack of light on her face.
Your model is lovely and her position and expression is nice. I think she needs a bit more golden soft lighting on her face (closer to what she has on her forearm & bicep). IMO the floor takes a lot away from this shot. Maybe a plush red, black, or dark green back would work better.
