A few shots from Germany
Just a few interesting details walking around a couple of towns in Germany. In the second one, I was just captured by the setting sunlight in an alley.

I would work on bringing her eyes out more. And the images seem a little flat I would try and get them to pop more, but that is just my style.
I think the pictures are nice although a little stiff is posing this model ;)
I think it is a natural progression of a photographer to master the light and then develop the skill to get an engaging expressions.
And since the purpose of this group is "Lighting", i think the feedback should focus on that.
(1) I love backlighting hair in portraits. But this particular photo seems a little off. Probably because the model is leaning against the wall and small light source behind her is too localized. But i actually like the softness of her expression and light shadows.
(2) Light on the top is a little too strong.
(3) My favourite of all set - i really like strong muscle definitions you got here.
(4) Same as #2 - i think the rim light is a little too strong.
These are simply opinions.
Keep shooting!
I'm a fan of backlighting and for me, the balance you have with the lighting is image 4.
I like the post and the overall 'feel' and tone of the image
