I really like this one, very original, but I would like to see this image without the lines hanging the figure. But everything is gorgeous, the texture, the light. Very nice job!

Your French is probably better than my English, so feel free to go on! As for your "thingie", I can imagine very well what kind of shape you're referring to, I myself came across similar ones before discarding the idea ;-)

I was going to say it was the lowest ribbon score I ever saw, but then realised that you came second rather than third... so second lowest ribbon score I've ever seen :-)
I like the lighting in this a lot. Not Weston-esque, perhaps, but still nice.

I've come to realise I should try commenting in French on your shots (hoping you'll forgive the lack of accenting, poor grammar, woeful spelling and embarrassing attempts at the language... haven't spoken/written it in 7 years or more and wasn't good at it when I did either)...

I think I may stop commenting in French if that's OK :-)

Well done. And an astute observation about the produce available in our major markets these days. Finding a Weston subject in a standardized world. Not easy work these days.

Congrats, man, you seem to ribbon with everything you shoot. Must admit I gave you a 6, because of the strobes reflection, everything else is perfectly Weston.
