This is beautiful. Very nice pose of the model. Very nice crop. Very nice! :-) I just wish the lighting was a bit more punchy (ie. maybe levels modified in PS to give it slitghly more light). Nice detail on the position of the feet pointing like that. good job! 7

Simple and classic. Nice choice of model for this type of pose. Good use of B&W. Nice pose. What could be improved I think: a) stretching more the model (ie. pointing her foot instead of it lying flat on the floor). b) Closer crop on the left and the right; the square crop doesn't help enhancing the feminity of the model. c) Using Channel Mixer to create your b&w would have given a bit more punch to the shot, I think. d) Some detail in the hair would have been nice, but this is just nitpicking really... ;-) Overall good shot, good job!

Good choice of model for this type of shot. Pose seems a bit awkward to me... It feels just not totally right in the composition of the shot. Maybe it would have helped if the body was put more into a diagale (ie. pointing the left arm toward the top left corner, or something similar). Very nice lighting. Feels like there was a lot of burning to get rid of the background, which we still see some of it around the body... Don't know if it was intentional or not. Nice color. 7

Very well done shot. Love the colors! Nice pose from the model, although her left foot seems a bit oddly placed (maybe it could have been pointy, or silghtly moved). Very nice expression of the face. Lovely environment. Very nice composition and crop. 8

Whisper in the air

One of my favorites this challenge. Simple and visually very dynamic nude. I love the fact that we see some detail in the hair from the light source on the right. Beautiful sky! Colros are great. Excellent silhouette. And what can I say about the composition!!! Stunning. Can I be picky? If I may... I wish there had been a bounce used to slightly reflect light on her left, maybe from below. I think it would have been delicious to see just a hint of those curves on the body, yet keeping the overall silhouette effect. Just my two cents. Good job! 8

great facial expression. Superb detail in the hair. It is really unfortunate that the crop cuts of the curves of her derriere. I think it would have added a lot to this playful nude. Nice composition. 7

The expression of the model is what makes it for me. Very nice. Skin seems extremely soft (too much neat image? Or maybe diffuse glow?). Regardless, very nice! I wish we saw more details in the hair instead of this very dark area, and maybe more texture on the wall to the right. Nice crop and composition. 7

Classic shot. We never get tired of a shot like this when it is well executed. Great model for this pose too. I love the tatoos, they certainly add to the shot! good pose. Very nice B&W. In my tops. 8

One of my favorites this challenge. I love the environment in which the nude is shot. Very classic and classy. I love that the model is in the shadow, and of course her position is very alluring. Wonderful details in the hair: I wish we could see the image larger to truely appreciate it. I salute your choice of not cropping closer, even though it would have been tempting because of the poor 640 pixels limit size that we get on DPC. 9
