Aivar, Effective composition using the red petals as a base for the main subject.

Also, I like the simple contrast between the BW and the one color of red; the two work well together. Nicely done.

Aivar, normally I think selective color is cheesy, but this one really works. Nice contrast, both between the color and b/w, and between the model and the background. I'd love to know how you lit this shot, and how you edited it in post, if you're willing to discuss the details here.

 

The only thing I think I'd change is the position of her left arm -- it covers up a part of her right arm in a way that I think is unflattering, but I'm not sure why. She's slender, and I think exposing that part of her arm would accentuate a good shape, whereas maybe if she slid her left arm down so her left wrist covered her right forearm just below the elbow, it might be a more flattering pose. Either that, or I'd have her put her left arm out behind her and maybe lean on it or just drop it straight down. I'm not a posing expert, though, so maybe someone else will have a clearer explanation (or simply disagree with me).
