Really like the way in which this was taken. Nice model as well and personally speaking the wrinkles in the coat is a nice contrast between that and the smooth latex.

Thanks!
BTW, there is no latex at all in this picture...

Slightly blurry photo actually works great here ... I think her hair should be styled a bit differently and the wrinkles in the cape are almost a distraction. But all-in-all smoking hot model and photo!

Oh, this is actually not blur. There was some originally, but mostly what you would perceive as blur is noise filtered off. This image has been through a number of filters, "simplifying" it. So there are large regions that lack any features, but that is some really artificial and selective blur. Though the location was really dark, the flash trigger mostly failing and thus aperture being too open to have the whole of the figure in focus.
We had no right to do anything about the hair, as she had to be a model for hair beauty contest the next day. No unauthorised manipulation...
That cape had been tucked in the bottom of a bag for a year or so. In building with no water and electricity only available in two rooms you cannot expect too much opportunity to prepare your costumes.
All in all - the picture was taken by an amateur (me), and to a great extent done by chance, the model is a professional though. Glad you like the result.

In truth ... I have no right saying anything since I haven't posted any work here and you're doing your best 
I comment whenever something inspires me or when I see the potential for improvement that already exists within the photo.
I love photography and I would love to be in your shoes. Sadly I have rarely been able to work with models and never doing work that really interests me. Which is why I am here admiring and learning from people who can do it and do it better than I ever could.
Therefore - thank you!

No, you do have right, and this work is out here just because I want to hear from the people taking a look at it.
The potential of improvement can only be exploited when the circumstances allow for it. Working with simple and cheap equipment (with a tendency to fail from time to time), without any assistants to help with the style and everything this is a bit hard. Therefore, I myself usually notice what could have been done better after the shot is "developed", but then I know what were the actual opportunities for that.
This is the first *real* model I have ever worked with, and she agreed to work with me just out of interest in the work we are doing, as I cannot pay her.
Thanks for comments!
