Um . . . Marine Corps, not sailor's.sailor hat.
I'm not sure about it. I like it a bit more the longer I look at it.

No issues for me. I think the lighting is very good. In this shot I think keeping the cover in strong light is entirely keeping with the USMC ethos.
HUAH!
yeah, i will admit i didn't even look more than a couple sec . The dof ended to abrupt for me. Made the head and particuliarly the nose pop way too much. with the pop on the nose and the lipstick heavy and upside down the first thought that entered my mind was clown like. i didn't like the dark on the left, but mostly i think it was just too close, with not enough dof and a soft blend through the frame. i didn't think it captured the subject in a flattering way. comes off as somewhat awkward. Realizing what can be revealed in this section is limited, i would expect to see a hint of sexuality in a photo of this type, top of the breast or hint of, a long leg in focus. some hints of sexuality. i cant get passed the upside down clown feeling with the head looking abnormally big and nose abnormally large. i think it was just shot too close, questionable pose for flattering the subjects features and dof problems with not enough sexuality. The blacked out left side is somewhat concern but not the main issue here. But there are those MUCH more qualified than me to comment on this. i would question the makeup too but even that is hard to tell because of how this was taken. i don't get sexuality from this image, if that was the intended purpose. i do appreciate the o.p's attempt.I'm not sure about it. I like it a bit more the longer I look at it.

It's not working for me on a few levels. When I shoot I take a number of frames (300-600) and try a bunch of poses, angles, lighting. I can see myself trying this one but not taking it to post. The lighting is a bit harsh with extreme dropoff. That alone wouldn't be too much a detriment but the angle is awkward, the hat is blocking all of her curves (which in my opinion is important, the curves). The legs leaving the frame is fine but the reappearance of her right lower leg and heel a distraction.
One more thing, and don't take this wrong, using the USMC emblem in a photo and NOT on the head of a Marine is taboo and could cause the Marine issues. Be careful with that. I've had USAF women pose for me and using any form of US Property is strictly prohibited, as sexy as it could be!
