Full-on nude shot! The lighting is pretty harsh though, I think a softer presentation (in terms of lighting) would have been better. The eye contact is marred by the head-dress and it looks strangely photoshopped into place (probably due to a shadow-based adjustment) - just trying to get my head around how it stands out so much. You've nailed the focus on the eyes though and the deep black background really isolates your subject.

This could've been a nice, bold image but to be honest, the processing totally spoils it for me. There are strange patches of blurred area and other areas that are over-sharp, it messes with the perspective, like you had quite a wide area of focus and have tried to create a sense of a shallower DOF. Her mouth almost looks painted on because of the lack of detail there; the oversharpening on the nipples is the worst part, they look unnatural and it doesn't make sense with how much of the rest of the breasts are blurred.

on my 27" imac i see over sharpened ripples,lips and eyes and the head dress thing, you can see the edge of the brush strokes round the nipples and the lips and eyes look freaky.

wayyy to much PP (in my humble opinion) Her lips look drawn in
