Kooky and interesting, works well in black and white.

This is great, and would be useful posted in the current thread where people are talking about low and high key images. Beautiful.

This reminds me of a painting - she's just so beautiful and the pose is somewhat Rubenesque. Note I don't mean that she's fat, I mean she looks sensuous. You've captured that very well. I think background lets this shot down a lot though, especially the edge of the bed being in frame.

I like this idea. I also like that I can see the little ring in the belly button and the pretty painted lips. Nice details. Image is too soft for my tastes and background lets it down a touch for me.

Nice, low key works well. I like the way the light defines muscle and pose but doesn't give me enough detail to see him clearly. Very classical.

Nice pose to create a dynamic shape. I like the inclusion of wrinkles in the fabric - they provide a nice additional detail.

La Femme

I really like the composition of this - there is just the right amount of negative space to the left and right and I like how you crop into her head and breast to create an intimate feel. Expression works well, blown out highlights do too because they make her melt into the background a touch whilst also standing proud. A contradiction. Nice image!

Interesting use of light and nice choice to shoot from above.

Choice of backdrop works very well - I like the stark concrete floor and painted brickwork. They contrast with the smooth shiny plastic of the mannequin. Strong composition also.

This is beautiful! What colours, what wonderful rough edges, what character in the sagging shapes. And your crop is just perfect, very strong. I am going to have to try polaroid manips some day.
