Hi. =TazzyDee reporting for #Critique-It duty!
Congratulations on your win and what a fantastic prize!
Firstly, I'll tell you what attracted me to this picture. Wonderful light, amazing tones, black and white definitely wields the best results for this one.
Great expression from model, and the title suits it perfectly: Simple and complimentary of the image without being distracting or taking precedence.
Composition - White line across top could be distracting / unbalance frame. Works for this, idea of natural daylight falling upon her, and adds to the curvaceous, sensual vibe. I love the way the light falls on the lines of her arm and along the hand, but at the same time the position of the hand may be somewhat awkward.
Framing, crop - Arms cut just before we see the elbows feels slightly awkward, and the lower arm squashed. They almost look disjointed, or like they're someone else's arms! However, the model gives an impression of being comfortable, at ease, so this point isn't one to worry over too much.
In fact, the actual execution of the image is great, and the main area I have to criticize is the size. I really think it should be full view: the beautiful eye detail you captured is wasted.
Also, the dA Watermark makes it hard to critique this photo, because it obscures so much of it. I'd suggest making your own subtle watermark to allow the viewer to enjoy the image. So huge watermark - tiny photo - very much lowers the effect this image could have.
All in all, a striking, beautiful image. You have caught a wonderfully interesting expression and used light perfectly.
