Maenad

This photo was taken as part of a photo project with a local group, depicting scenes and people from mythology. In this case, the model was supposed to be a Maenad, a Dionysian nymph. It was taken with my XG-9, on my usual Black's Store brand film (until I get access to a darkroom, the prepaid processing is more economical). I think it probably would have benefited nicely from the use of a warming filter, but otherwise, I really like the way the image turned out.

I like this but think it would be a stronger image if it was cropped just below at the hem line of her dress.
 
Yes I would crop it just below the bridge on the lute as the bottom area does nothing for your shot.

This however is a really great shot of your model and the idea behind it is excellent.
