Subtleties of Form

I really like this shot a lot. I think perhaps it could be improved by playing with different lighting - perhaps more diffused lighting from each side, so that you'd still see the textures of the legs, but you'd capture more detail. As it is, I tend to squint at this, wanting it to be just a bit clearer, wanting the image to jump out at me a bit more. I'm glad that someone took an image of a man's legs, however. The muscle structure of a man's arms and legs are always amazing to me, as a female - strong, yet graceful lines. 7

Somewhat reminicent of a beautiful photo by one of my favorite photographers that can be seen here: //www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=308079 I think that, perhaps, by playing with a more dynamic composition, this would be a 10. Striking, well lit, and gracefully done. 7

Interesting composition, I really like the high contrast. I normally don't care much for this much use of a filter, but this image brings out such a feeling of intimacy that it gets a straight 8 from me. Nice, creative work.

The more I look at this, the more I like it. It's the best use of the plastic wrap filter that I've ever seen. So unusual. The colors are fabulous. The banana is a stroke of genius, and the way the sliced citrus fruits are reminicent of breasts turns this into art. I originally rated this this a 6, but coming back and looking at it more closely, I'm judging it as "art" rather than straight photography, and I can see it on the wall of an art gallery... I'm bumping my vote to a 10 and may buy a print if you make them available.

I think this is the best male nude of the challenge - a few tiny hot spots, and in the lower left there are some dark spots on the background that are a bit distracting. A bit more play with the lighting and this would have been a 10. I'm giving it an 8 as it is. Nice pose and I like the symmetry.

One of my favorites of the challenge. I love high-key work when it is well done, as this is. Lovely model, composition, pose - everything. 9

Not Your Average Supermodel (nude no 3)

Beautiful setting, pose, lighting, and the expression you've captured really makes this an outstanding nude portrait and brings life to the photo. The model connects with the camera in a way that is hard to capture, oftentimes. Congrats. Lovely. 9

Can't give this anything but a 10. Grippingly sensual and evocative.

Interesting use of symmetry, very nice lighting that really brings out the human form. It looks like the grain is intentional, but I'm not sure that it adds to the image for me as a viewer, personally.
