Form

Awesome. At first I thought it was a gourd, but now I'm thinking it's a swan digging in the water. That reaction alone I think demonstrates a great recreation of Weston's approach. I especially like that your subject is so different from what I have seen him do. That said I think your shot has too much depth with the back being out of focus. Still, I really like it.

Nice shot! It doesn't capture some of what I think is the best of Weston's sense of form, though there is more to his work (I love it when he captures a subject with notable depth that is conspicuously flattened thus abstracted with his capture -- I think your subject was too flat to start with to recreate that). With that in mind, I think the contrast, lighting, framing, and spirit of your shot are spot on. I really like it.

Nude.. tribute to Edward Weston

Beautiful homage to a specific photo! Even before looking back at the reference shot the door bothered me. At first I thought it was too close; but looking at the Weston I think it's just too bright. In his shot the verticals of the model's form are not interfered with by the door. I think you only notice it on a second or closer look. You captured wonderful form with your model, but the door is in the way and detracts in my opinion. Also, if anything is sharply in focus, it seems to me that it's the grain in the center of the door panel and possibly the back of the towel trim. I think Weston would have the whole model in perfect focus.

Ah, wonderful selection! I love the veins visible on the pit. I would believe it if Weston had the idea for this shot (I don't recall seeing anything quite like this from him). I just wish the lighting on the avocado skin wasn't so harsh. With softer less obtrusive lighting I would have given this a 10.

I think this is great. You found a great specimen and I caught it well, obviously inspired by Weston. Good job!

Doesn't look like an existing Weston to me, but I think perfectly captures the motion, lighting, and form of his work. Awesome!

I think Weston would have really liked this shot. Very nice with echoes of Weston.

Lighting perfect, focus perfect, contrast perfect, model perfect, cropping perfect. I am annoyed I can't find anything to criticize. I like the annoyance.

I would believe it if this turned out to be a lost Weston. Well done all around.

I see it. I think you echo Weston nicely here, and I love the shot to boot. Well done!
