First nude shoot, my awesome friend Francesca offered herself up as the model. I was the one sweating though, as I was backed up against the radiator to get a good angle!

no offence to the model, but the cat's expression is much more interesting :) which fits the title

Very well executed shot. I really like the woman/cat combo. I like the light in the background too.

The blown foot and the thing behind the sofa are a little distracting though. Nonetheless, it's a high score from me.

Very nice. I really like the cat touch and the lights/shadows. I wish there wasn't distracting stuff above the couch, but all in all one of the goodies.

The addition of the cat is a great touch.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I Googled ailurophobia, perfect title choice, haha. That cat looks positively shocked! I like the model, she's very relaxed in her expression and modest pose. Her right foot is very blown out and the white chair being there seems kinda random when there's a couch right behind her; I feel that having her sitting a bit further back on the actual couch would've made more sense. The cropped off bottom of her shoe draws my eye but I'm really pernickity about things like that, lol. Still, I like the shot overall, good work.

Tattoos, red hair, and a cat that is just as awed as I am. Fantastic.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/03/2013 03:40:50 AM
This must be Paul's work. Overall very well done, the cat's looks are priceless (WTF does she see?); pose and looks of the model are great. The blown lights on her leg distract a bit, and I wonder why you placed the chair in front of the couch (or haven't moved the couch out of the scene, if you wanted that specific lighting situation). My pick for the red (how fitting).
