This was hard to take. The lighting was very difficult and I had only little time because it was exertive and aching for my model to pose. Thus none of my shots yield a "perfect" result. I will try it with this one though the lower part of back is too dark. I'm curious about your votes...

Like the lighting here and I think the braided hair sort of adds another dimension to the 'rope' theme. What really kills me about this photo is the centered model offers a chance at symmetry and balance which is very pleasing to the eye and would work well with the negative space and highlights on her back and hands, yet the wooden floor beneath her is noticeably off kilter as far as being horizontal. It distracts my eye. Also think she might have pulled her left shoulder back a bit so that the light fell evenly across her upper back. Nice photo, good luck.
Beautiful. I even like the parquet floor. Adds a nice bit of graphic detail to it. The lighting is exquisite. Love that single mole on her back. Love the blonde loose pony tail. This is wonderful.
