That’s a good one—much more sensual than many of the naked photos shown here.

Super nicely done! Use of the dark green pillow/cloth to contrast the red hair. Your attention to detail is excellent. The pose/crop works extremely well. The light works so well with the alabaster skin tonality. Completely under control!

classic, perhaps slightly more DoF but that's being really picky
To get the eyes and the nipple in focus and taper the background to soften slightly was a very fine balance …
Being over the model whilst taking the shot means you have very little room for error or DoF… What F stop would you have used...??

Indeed close cropping gets the message across.. the full woman is distracting ... here you have made a soft gentle loving statement... close in loving the eye only sees part of the woman as in your very nice-message photo.

I did say I was being picky... lol
'old school' film use would involve taking a number of similar pictures with slightly different settings, in this case, I'd try half and one stops with a smaller aperture setting.
Digital techniques tend to aim for maximum sharpness/DoF and then using a bit of Gaussian or similar blur to reduce the background/unwanted areas. I'm sure some others on here with far better editing skills then me, can give you some pointers?
If that was my shot I would be incredibly proud of the result you obtained. It is gorgeous. Well done!

Sorry RogStrix
I work on getting it right in camera wether film or digital (I use both) With film I do use a meter so take 1 shot only, if you shot film you would understand the cost implication of every button click....... I take it you have never shot a professional model before either.... Hang on 10 minutes whilst I take several shots and you get stiff from trying to hold a pose...LOL don't think that would work... Sorry cant take this serious as to give critiques but not have the relevant knowledge or skill base to back up the critiques makes the critique meaningless/empty... Have you tried just looking at images without critiquing until you have the knowledge and skill to answer or show?? I was once given advice several years ago on here that stated Take advice with a pinch of salt... On that note....lol.... ;-)
