Love the shelties. Had two till just recently, now sadly I'm left with just the one. Great dogs, if a little on the barky side.

3165 views... Wow.

I don't mind the subject of the image.

Ways the image could look better:

1 - a more athletic model

2 - airbrushing/neatimaging or in some other fashion getting rid of the skin detail

3 - either using a different squid or editing the image so that there is a greater contrast between the color of the squid and the color of the skin

4 - change dof to get the whole squid in focus

5 - crop it differently and/or shoot from an angle so there is not such a wash of skin around. I see this working a hundred times better if the girl is standing upright and all you see is the squid over her nether regions.

6 - finally, and this would border on ruining the concept and would certainly negate the shock value, I wonder if this wouldn't look better if she were wearing panties. That would give more contrast to the image as a whole and solve the overall 'blah' look it has.

Really cool. If the areas around the eyes were super sharp and jumped out of the melting bit I think it would look even better. Wait, the cat is melting right? This isn't anoTHER FLASHBACK IS IT??? OH MY GOD!!! OH MY GOD!!!

Cool photo but really whatever the stuff is cluttering up the foreground breaks it. More bananas maybe? Whatever they are, they add nothing and they block the view of the nicely lit main subject. Remove the obstructions and this photo scores much, much better. Good luck.

Very nice shot. Sorry normally I'm more verbose, but that pretty much sums it up. Nice shot, pleasant to look at.

Awesome. Great use of lightING, awesome tones, and the trick with the notes is the icing on the cake. Man I hope to see this ribbon. Really great.

I like this shot. What keeps it from really getting me excited is the weird perspective problems. Left side of the door frame is off kilter, top is off kilter, right side is vertically correct. So basically, the smallest section of the background is the one that is nicely lined up. Might have worked better if the left side where your subject is was straight up. Believe this is a function of the angle you held your camera at and the distance you were from the door given the focl length of your lense. but whatever, I'll leave the physics to someone who knows. It just bothers my eyes. Other than that, the lighting itself is nice and well captured. Good job.

I'm sticking with my initial reaction - best shot in the challenge. Nice finish, but hell of a picture. Kudos again.
