I'll address this image specifically and the 'astrology' series in general. (I looked at several in your gallery.)

This image captures the essence of classic 'retro' pinup. The model's hairdo is reminiscent of that era along with the swimsuit. The model's smile and pose works well together here. The only minor 'fault' is I think the shows seem too modern. More of a patent pump shiny smooth not sparking. Overall great attention to detail.

The concept of using the astrological backdrops brings the image to a more modern interpretations (which is why the shoes are only minor). Especially with the unusual shape, textures and background. An excellent concept nicely executed.

I do feel there's a 'cut and paste' look to the image. In a couple, we do not see any actual support to the model. This is image amplifies that aspect IMO. If these are actual props, it could be a lighting issue with too much bounce off the floor. That would reduce the shadows and give that 'flattened' look of the background.

But still overall great images and well executed photographs. Thanks for sharing and I hope you find my comments and opinion helpful.
