I'm finding the reflections to be quite intriquing. Did your arms get tired holding that light out there like that? And...do you always shoot without a shirt on? :-P

Fantastic BG and colors. the comp. is great too. The reflection is quite distracting though, and the person in the reflection appears almost to be naked. I want so very much to focus on the overall photo and really critque, but I just keep squinting at the reflection trying to figure out what's going on there. Sorry for my ADD and inability to focus on the bigger picture. from what I can drag my attention to it does seem like a lovely overall pic. though.

Solid stock photography work here. The tilt adds, and the background is handled especially well in my opinion.
