Your model is very beautiful ... I like the stone and waterfall but the greenery behind her is distracting.
The model becomes incidental to the total image.
Have you ever been to Hawaii?

I hate being a naysayer, but this is just a mess. A beautiful model. Probably a nice waterfall. Possibly a meaningful statue. But. . .
a) The compositing is very poorly done.
b) There just seems no relationship among the objects. What were you trying to communicate?
c) The model has a "no-pose" pose.
d) Exposures don't match. Even though it is a composite, they don't have to be the same, but need to be in the same ballpark.
e) Lighting directions don't match. This really confuses the eye and brain. (Unless that was your intent.)
Sorry. I really feel crappy about being this negative. I think there could be a story here. You must have had one in mind. Take a look at some of the Youtube videos on compositing.
Lauren is, of course, very beautiful, but most young models are beautiful. Learning to pose is an art. That's why we pay the models. (I would never ask anyone to pose without compensation.)
Okay. Now start throwing things at me.
Great shot, beautiful lady. Would like to see her naked.
I like the work (as well as the other one you posted). I experience it as creative and visually appealing. A breath of fresh air.
Keep in mind there are many here who are very narrow in their thinking and very quick to offer critique to anything outside their box.
But this site needs more creativity and innovation. Please keep it up.
