Hi Jos,
You're posting in the critique gallery, so I assume you want feedback....
The light setup is perfect: beautiful soft Rembrandt light on the face, good catchlights in her eyes, a little bit of contour light coming from the left... well done!
The pose of her head and her right arm, with the hand under her chin and the hand seen on the side with her fingers bent in a relaxed way, very good!
But.... the way the body is positioned is rather unelegant: her shoulders are very broad and square; turning her body in a 45 degree angle would have made her body more slim, a lower camera postion would have given her more neck (her chin is now below the shoulders, no neck at all). The biggest problem I have with this image is her very large and highlighted left shoulder, it draws a lot of attention away from her beautiful face and is a very dominant image element.
From a technical point of view, with a 6x7 camera I personally prefer to create a small depth of field in order to draw all attention to the face, more specifically the eyes. In this image everything is sharp, thus showing lots of sharp details across the entire image, which makes it somewhat "restless" to me.
