Beautiful lady...
For me, her face is a bit "hot", I don't like the full circle catch light in her eyes, you cut off her elbo, and something about the lower right corner of the shot looks strange. Sorry to be so negative. Keep in mind, I'm no expert but when I look at any photo, I either like it or don't. I really don't care about the "rules".
Light setup - florescent lights - 4 ballasts total making a square - directly in front of subject - shooting thru the square. Hotlight behind subject for rim.
I like the ring/square light, for most it takes some getting used to. The pose is fine but I think it is her choice of top that is throwing my eye off. Without the shoulder being covered as the other it seems that a balance is off to my eye. It seems to distort the shoulder and under part.

Quite.
Nothing is blown...we shoot hot. It's great beauty lighting.
Yup, and her head too. Cropping was deliberate and specific.
Slight flare from the rim light.
Again, thanks for the comments.

It honestly looks like a graphic flap of skin......................
(I also 100% am sure by looking at the rest of the shot and the model herself that this is NOT the case, but still. It's all I see now :cry)
