It's seldom that I instantly am attracted to an image - as is the case with yours. I'm utterly in love with this one! The dark dress present here nicely mimics the long curve of the model's hair and the feathers of the bird in flight. And, even better, this beautiful dress frames the center of our attention, leading the eye to the naturally toned skin of the model on the right-hand side of the image. I also believe that the industrial background adds wonderfully to the atmosphere and film noir feeling of your shot. This bears witness to a skilled artist. An instant hit!

I really love the lighting here. I think that is this pieces strongest point. Your ability to convey a natural yet surreal lighting is just awesome. It may or may not have helped to reduce the lighting on the 'models' back, but I think it is a minor point. It might also be worth adjusting the color of her skin to better suit the hues of the lights in the sky, but I'm not sure if that was the effect you were going for. My last nitpick (although it is a small one) is the position of the bird. I think a bit more off center would have helped the composition, either to the left or nearer to her head.

Lastly, I have to give you kudos for keeping the shadows so detailed, especially in her dress. Really a fantastic job there. It's so dark but I can still see everything, and that is very tough to do.
