This image has caused me to stop and pay attention. That means it is in my 7-10 voting band. (Voted earlier)

Additionally, it is highly interesting/eclectic meaning it keeps me here long enough to offer a longer comment and a vote of 8 or more.

This is one of my 8s - I like it. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:

1. Excellent mood - great communication, it takes us there.

2. Brilliantly judged exposure, silhouette works and street is perfectly captured.

3, Great POV and composition.

4. Effective tones.

Overall, a very interesting and enjoyable image.

1. I'm a fan of nudes and this one is really, really good.

2. Excellent rib definition - models love to show them off.

3. Really effective coloration.

4. Standout lighting - excellent balance of highlight, shadow, transmission, reflection.

5. I really like the twisted fabric at the top of the image.

Great stuff - I wish I had shot it.

This is one of my 10s - I like it very much. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:

1. Stunning composition - reminds me of an image I saw a long time ago on 1x.com - I may try to find it for you later.

2. Great story and mystery here - the figure is an excellent inclusion. What's his story?

3. Fabulous exposure, I particularly like how the grass is put into silhouette.

4. Wonderful aspect ratio and framing.

Overall, a very enjoyable picture.

Astonishing - your image process descriptions are always so matter of fact when actually you've done something requiring extraordinary commitment, skill and planning.
