model and her shadow

I would appreciate suggestions to improve this kind of pictures (art

class). Thank-you for stopping by. Yves P.

OK going with your request for improvements, the main improvement that i would like to see it a zoom out, with the full figure as i am not a big fan of where it has been cropped, also more shadow, though i do like the shadow, and maybe a square image rather than a rectangle incorporating the figure and shadow, also not too sure on the border either

i hope this helps,

I'm in agreement with Charles on the crop and field of view of the image.

Also, I can see what looks like some pixelation or artifacts (I'm not really sure how to describe it) on the model's skin and the background. There are also variations of the shadow on the red area at her feet and the wall that look inconsistent. It would appear the model was cut and pasted onto the background, or vica-versa.

I'm not sure what to suggest, except to be more careful with the post production work details.

For me, while this may work well as an excercise image for a painter or sketch artist to work from, I don't feel it works well as a photograph on it's own.
