    Nice, but a little bit of fill (reflector?) would make it nicer. Or if you really want to work with her silhoutte, maybe move her directly in front of the window? It's nice as is, though. Thanks for sharing.

    I prefer the second one. Great shot!!! It is a very sexy shot as it creates a really nice mood.

    I like the exposure more in the second shot, but the head position more in the first. In the first shot, I'd like to see the edge of her hair, and perhaps more of her face (like a hint of her right cheek).

    Could you try lightening these areas to see what's there? (probably more than you think) You'll probably also need to increase contrast as you lighten, or it will look flat. You could try the same on her body as well, but just doing the face and leaving the rest of her body as is would lend some mystery, I think.

    Nice work! Keep 'em coming!

    I like the second shot a lot.

    The door handle really distracts me on the first one.
