I have made many times pictures similar to this using a white or grey background. Now I did something different with some really strong colors.
Only after the shooring I started thinking that this look remotely reminded me of some old Miles Davis vinyl record covers : )
Comments are welcome, as always.

I like this! I like that you put the arms out so we can see them, so they're not lost within the body, but I would have liked to have seen the elbows bent, and I probably like to see one arm in front and one arm back, to give it some balance. But that's just me. Overall, love what you're doing here.

Nice! I appreciate your reference to Miles Davis albums. I own several. Sadly, "Kind of Blue" is not one of them.

Did you know that the "Kind of Blue" album cover was shot by Jay Maisel? It's a great album. Listening to it now.

Thank you for the nice comment dmacmillan!
I own dozes of Miles Davis albums, including "Kind of Blue". One of those albums that came to my mind after the shooting of this picture was "Sketches of Spain", which was arranged by the great Gil Evans.
I´m a professional musician (my main profession) and actually, believe it or not, I have played with Gil Evans once in 1987 in Helsinki, Finland. He was conducting and playing a concert with the UMO Jazz Orchestra. He was a really nice person and had a good sense of humour too. During a coffee break we were talking about aging, among other things. He told that he feels like a young man (he was 75 at the time), but always gets a shock in the mornings when he puts the lights on in the bathroom and looks at the mirror: there is some strange old man staring at him! : )
Sadly Mr. Evans passed away about a year after our concert.

Nicely done!

One nit-pick : I'm not normally a big proponent of photoshopping minor imperfections, but given that a silhouette probably needs to have the cleanest, simplest lines possible I'd suggest removing the "quad boob" she has here from wearing too small of a bra.

Lee, thank for commenting my picture! English is not my first language, so I´m not sure if I got you right. I checked the original file and found out that maybe you were actually referring to model´s right "boob" which is slightly visible there.
Here is a retouched version of the picture. Is this what you meant?

Thank you for the comment. I didn´t know, to be honest.
