this image is very low contrast - Newton's work was high contrast. Breast allone do not indicate a tribut to his work.

Superb. Love the way her skin tone blends in with the surrounding. My opinion anyway. Nice photo!

Paper wave

Comment by SteveJ:
Greetings from the Critique Club:

Paper wave was your entry for the Delicate challenge, and I think you made the right choice moving this to Delicate instead of Light On White II.

Technical:
Excellent focusing and DOF. The lighting and cropping is superb. You have made good use of the maximum size allowed. The texture and shading of the paper against the white background works really well. I have just one comment of criticism and it is very minor. I wondered what the image would look like if the crop was not so tight at the top and showed the curve of the paper against the background.

Composition:
Superb! Nothing else I can say other than my last comment in technical about the crop.

Overall:
This would have creamed a Minimalism challenge. Judging by the scores I don't think a lot of voters really understood or took the time to study your image and so it scored far lower than it should have. It matches your other high scores but suffered unfairly during voting. A top 5 image, well done. I hope this brief critique is helpful and constructive. I would normally say more, but why should I? It is a winner in all but votes.

Steve
