For those interested, I had one homemade reflector (cardboard and aluminum foil) otherwise just ambient light. The PP was 1 RAW file developed twice, once for the sky and once for the foreground. Some dodge and burn, sharpening and other tweaks :-)
And thanx again for all you nice comments, views and votes;-)

No doubt about it: the style of Heida, excellent colors and mood but the pose of the model does not work for me. Still very good image. 8.

It has all the elements of a Heida shot, but it doesn't have the same mood. I think that might be down to the lighting or perhaps processing.

I'm sitting here voting and thinking that it would've been SO cool if Heida had entered this challenge without saying a word to anyone. That said, this photo made me believe she has. But I don't think this is Heida because the sky looks to clean. I'm used to see some noise on it. And maybe I do, or that might be my eyes. Point is that I will give you a 10 and favorite this photo, and I'm looking forward to see this ribbon in a week or so when the voting is done. Good luck!

My pick for red. You did great capturing Iceland (if you aren't acutally there) and the clouds are, of course, heida. The fact the model does not command a large portion of the canvas is also a heida touch. I'm glad you didn't put her up on the rock and try to copy heida's shot. I would have given you a 5 for that, but you get a 9.
