Good skin tones and good clarity but the problem with this one for me is that it appears that the hammer is a total afterthought. From her pose and the way way she is holding the hammer, it appears that she doesn't have a clue what to do with it.

So, the hammer appears totally disassociated from her in this image... it just doesn't work. Regards.

Nice idea and good picture,but her sence and reaction is not normal,a soft smile with hammer in her hand ,has a story...but strange one, and I think her hair dress is not match with this action subject.Good luck

Good sharpness and lighting in this shot. I would say the only issues that I see with this is the models pose. The pose makes her stomach look larger than it is (you can tell she's lovely and slim) and her breasts are not the most flattering shape. A different pose would have made all the difference. Nice eye contact and DOF.

Maybe the hammer shouldn't look like you just purchased it for the shoot. Bill

Does it ? In fact it's a genuine heavy-duty often used hammer ! :=)
