Sorry to say but I think this is by far the weakest of all your (otherwise excellent) shots.
At first glance it is a visually stunning array of organic splendour with a flawlessly executed colour palette. Unfortunately my eye is then pulled into the void in the middle of the image where Jen appears to be doing her best to be as un-organic as possible. Static central positioning, tightly controlled hair, tightly controlled (lack of) expression, tightly controlled make-up and an almost total lack of any humanising imperfections or details in the skin make her look like a mannequin or a dead Disney Princess laid in state.
I do love the little detail of the tattoo on the shoulder that, just like everything else, fits perfectly into the colour palette. Unfortunately it just feels as if you were so focused on getting every detail perfect that you overlooked the overall feel of the image.
Thank You for your feedback but I don't agree with You on many points. First of all You dont know what was the purpose of the shot and why I have executed that way. You just made your own assumptions based on not knowing what was my intention and based on what You would have done it but unfortunately that wasn't the case. I am respecting your opinion but again I don't agree with it.
