The first and, especially, the third of those are lovely, Bracan. I'm trying to pin down what I don't care for about the middle one where she is crouched down. Perhaps it's that the first and third appear to me to be a portrait of an athlete and the second photo looks like a fashion ad.

I like the first and third as well, the third being most engaging; I think the second looks like she's waiting for the six million dollar man steve austin to finish fighting the bad guys and rescue her from the forboding dank scene where she doesn't want to be.

[C. D. Keth]

Bracan, after thinking about it a little bit I think I am drawn to your first and third photo there because she exudes strength in the first and perhaps an inner weakness or desperation in the third. In the second, which I do not care for, she is just there to me. She has no presence, she does look like she's waiting as jp498 says.

I really enjoy these. She looks like a one of James Bond's girls from the 1960s or 70s.
