I quite like this photograph, for numerous reasons actually. I think that by keeping the composition and perspective quite simple, you have managed to portray your model in a much more natural and usual way. I quite like the subtle lighting here as well and the sofa and clothing work really well together, adding to the simplicity of the image. I think that this is great work. You have showed off your model well, which is what portrait work like this is all about. There is good detail and sharpness too.

My suggestion would actually be about the model's pose here. I feel that the right foot is twisted too much towards the inside of her body. I can see what you were trying to achieve, but I feel that it is slightly overdone and looks slightly unnatural. Other than that, I can't see many other flaws! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Smile)"/>

I have also given a slightly lower mark for the originality, as I don't think that there are many fresh ideas in this image. The photo is correct and good - but not really too inventive.

Nice work!
