Obscurity
I took this picture about a week ago... I need some advice. First of all, if I can improve on anything, and second, if in away it personifies 'obscurity' or 'secrecy' to you. My mind has gone blank on this one and I could really use an outsider's view.

It does have drama.
To emit a secrecy feeling; how about an out of focus man in the background looking at her in a questioning manner.
Her far off gaze would then have more meaning in my humble opinion.
Off course either you would have to photoshop this in or reshoot .
Heck if you reshot this... the universal shhsshh with an index finger to the lips would do just fine.
However I do not think this is an option for you .
Of course a good title and that is what I am assuming you are after here to help establish relevance to 'obscurity' or 'secrecy' .
1: Oh what a tangled web we weave.
2: What have I done?
This photo does however hold one big secret... And that is ...How did you take such a great picture ? Give us details please.:D

Its a wonderfull images with great colors, very nice lighting, a beautiful model, and very well shot.
But I dont get secrecy from it. I get more of a feeling of sadness or loss.
I am not dure I would recognise obscurity as an emotion and have no idea how you would depict it.
If so, it is probably the best self portrait I have EVER seen and would love to hear how you did it.
For the lighting, I stood in front of a reading lamp and had all the other lights in the room off so that the background would be dark.
I did use some photoshop, of course... made the colors brighter, for example the red hood. I don't know what else to tell you but thank you, heh.

I do think it's very good. The skin looks soft and smooth, everything else is nice and sharp. the lighting appears dramatic without being overdone.
The only thing neg I would say is that I dont quite think you nailed the emotion you were looking for.
