The lighting on her in this image is terrific. I love the way the shadow follows the line of her body.

Yes, as Mark say, it enhances the upward flow also .. excellent image, bravo. I do admittedly have a penchant for these when they are reinforced by such a graceful dance movement.   Now who will be the first to choreograph a naked Swan Lake. I'm not joking at all, it would be gorgeous .. we often see modern dance in Paris that includes the  nude, but I have not as yet come across a classic. Lovely image, bravo. And of course the model knows my admiration already. 

Jim, I love everything about this image except for your model's face.  I think a kicker light to give her some Rembrandt or butterfly lighting would have put this image over the top.  Regards, Michael
