@TheFlyingCamera Thank you. Agreed, it was not the best choice (dark grey) of backdrops. I need to get another; all of my light colors are on the shorter side and not as amenable for figure work.
I like the left arm and leg. this picture works better for me in 1:1 format
Was this done the same time as tipping point?
I think the lighting was a little bit better in the previous.
Still you the man, great work as always.
@awty Thanks for your comments. I did try to crop square, but it doesn't quite work (trims either fingers or toes) and I found the resultant composition really cramped.
Yes, it was at the same time as "Tipping Point". This frame is probably 10 minutes or before that one.

You could go either way- lighten the backdrop or darken it. And you could do that without getting a new backdrop- just control the light hitting it. Also, and take this for what it's worth, I'd either move the model farther from the backdrop itself, or use a larger aperture to blur out the details in the backdrop - it gets a tad distracting when we can read the wrinkles in the backdrop.
Wonderful portrait. I'd echo Mr. Flying Camera and mention the backdrop...my two cents, a black or dark grey one would feel right here but that's just me.
@TheFlyingCamera I don't mind the wrinkles in the backdrop, never have. I find the textures to be anchoring for the subject, and it's one of the reasons the single roll of seamless paper I've had for more than a decade has barely been used.
