Location
a ruined theater in an abandoned compound.Time
around late afternoon.Lighting
there was still a remaining oroof of the theater that's why the lsunlight is not directly hitting the modelEquipment

with that strong emotion and background, dry leaves unkempt "stage" rusty steel bars. right then I know exactly how I would want this to turn out by the time i'm ready to post-process. i already have a story. Once a popular ballerina and tried to relive the feeling of the limelight once she had even bu just dancing on the stage all by herself.Editing
yes generally jst making her look less alive and dead -applied some subtle"crack"texture on her skin" to give it a hint of "peeling" for that undead look. - changed her eyes completely to black but retaining the catch light. - adjusted the warmth - black "scorch" on the finger tips -added some dark gritty textures on the overall ambience of the photo -dark bokeh to focus the image on the modelIn my camera bag

mind the distractions that might stray your viewer's eye away from what you want to convey/show. putting a story on your photos could help bring out your photo even in the what you might think mundane. emotion is power.
