Late Afternoon Sun

I like the pic. Looks like old hollywoos style ;-)

Some more light from the right will allow to lighten up her face.

A genuine pin-up. Very well done. Congrats.

a little less revealing and a bit of PS work to mimic cross processing and this could be out of the 1940's

Nice one... great tone and color!

Great Pin-up, I really like this style!

If there would be anything I would suggest for this shot, would be to have it just be topless. The top just distracts me a little from the perfectness of the entire shot.

With regard to your comment, this is a costume-failure picture.  Two seconds before she was covered, but as she moved her right hand to the branch of the woody tree she was sitting on, her top slipped.  I took the picture in that brief moment in time before she became aware and reacted.  I think I must have captured something interesting for the viewers because no one has ever commented on the fact that I cut off her toes - an error I would rather have not made.  Others might have noticed the completely straight arm - usually considered a no-no.

I did take some of her pre-topless (see http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=6433623), as well as topless,  but this is my favorite of the series. It represents the bridge between covered and uncovered, and just that brief critical moment in time we photographers try to capture. The fact that her facial expression was the most regal of the day, also makes it one of my favorites.

What I was really concentrating on was the digitally-difficult task of keeping her skin highlights from overexposing, while at the same time, not losing shadow detail (I did, just a little on her face) and simultaneously controlling depth of field so as to throw the background into slight softness.
