Playing with lighting
A while back my wife asked me to take some pics of her. These are my favorites, decided to try and play with the only light i have. Please let me know what you think!

YOUNG MALE MALAYAN TIGER
These are a highly endangered species, and the rescue center has this young male tiger, which they hope will breed with their already existing female Malayan tiger.

BLACK LEOPARD
A new arrival at the rescue center. She was very friendly and very flirty, rolling about on her back and meowing, then staring at you as if she might be hungry. A magnificently beautiful animal

very nice use of available light
Hi Sash,
One light source is the way to go for bodyscapes. You have a good b&w rendition, I like that the black surrounding her is a solid black, not easy to do at times.
On the other hand you need to improve your composition, bodyscapes are very difficult to frame. When I do some I walk around the model and go up and down until I find a good angle/view. Don't be affraid to use a vertical framing too. You're lucky to have a willing model in house so you can practise. Ask her to bend forward or backward, lie on something or even be upside down. Bodyscapes are all about mystery, what exactly I'm I looking at?
The ones you shared might be better if they were cropped vertically to reduce the black negative space around her.
Hope this helps,
Marc
