Study in Purple

Strong back muscles here.

This doesn't do much for me as a photo - the colors are pointless to me, i can't understand why it should have a purple hue to it. some photos work ell with it, but a back doesn't seem to cut the mustard.

Also the pose and location isn't very dramatic - being flat on is kind of depth less and boring.

I would suggest rotating 45 degrees next time, and casting some shadows and depth.

Not a fan of the overly red look - I suggest toning it down just Little with the saturation slider in photoshop. That aside I like the statue you have picked - it gives it a good sense of scale next to the larger one that has faded into the background.

I actually like the grain on this, but something somewhere looks over processed. The pose is well thought out, although having the model rasp her breast is more porno than sexy in my mind - that is fair enough - but when you submit it with the title peaceful it kind of fights that a little.

Overall i like this quite a lot - it does have that sexy quality to it. 8

very nice and very soft skin. Lighting and pose very delicate which goes with the feel figure well.

My negatives are that her hand is a touch out of focus - it';s a bit of a drawing point so i would expect it to be much sharper. Apart from that I am not a fan of the coloring for some reason -it's a bit dirty looking - almost old brown type. But that is at the bottom, the hands are a nice shade.

8 from me.

Scarred Beauty

wow, this is very artful and almost olden in feel. The cold tones and blank expression make this photo really jump out.

Not sure if you need to draw attention to the scarring mind you.

Nicely taken stock shot, and very clever to boot. Will be interested to see how many people get this, if they don't look at it for very long they will probably hit the 1 and run off without understanding the humor.

I think I would have preferred it with the sausage as a whole, but not sure how you have your dogs in America (if that is where you are) in th UK they are whole.

Regardless I am being finicky - this is my first and only 10. Best of luck you deserve a top 3.

"But.......nude?"

Aww Finlay - after voting on 30 image i get to one that doesn't make me cringe :D

Very nice soft and summery feel to this. Sure she isn't totally nude but who cares - it suggests nude to me so that is good enough.

The inclusion of the flowers OOF really help give it some depth and added interest rather than relying on the human body alone. Almost voyeuristic.

Excellent

straight out of the 70's man! hehe

not sure what to say - the bedding and pose isn't to my tastes at all - however the quality and lighting is well done. I think you really need to have some facial contact with the model.

Quite a harrowing image so ful marks for that. Compsoitiona dn quality seem a little off, but given teh subjectone would expect that and not a perfectly taken image so i think it helps it a lot.

Well done.
