>>4054239yeah thanks for the feedback. i was satisfied with the composition and unhappy with the exposure. i cropped a decent bit off the left that was all pretty exposed, and if i pulled up the exposure or darks more, then the image got pretty noisy
in the end i decided it was better with less noise, and the generous interpretation that her being in the shadow created some mystery and draws attention to the lines of light on her shoulder blade, forearm, and face
but if i could arrange the same photo with more time, i'd have had more light coming from the right side
