Hot pose. The color/tone difference of her back compared to her legs bothers me, and her legs have obviously been over-smoothed. Most of the picture is gritty and old-timey, but her torso, butt, and head are pin sharp and clean so they don't quite sell it for me. The hay bail (or frosted mini-wheat?) in the lower left is so blurred that it appears closer to the camera, but are we supposed to believe her hand is resting on it? That's not working for me either. Otherwise great shot with loads of potential.

An "accurate" reproduction of a scene and a good photograph are often two different things.
Comments
Very few models can pull off this "flat to the camera" lookback. This one can.
Question though: Why the blur off her (camera right) hip and lower reins??
