4 i feel no emotion when looking at this picture, I think the crop is too close to the mountains and I cannot get a good perspective as to where you are.

Comment by Louis:
This is a great image, and I would have scored it a 6. It's a tad underexposed and would really have benefitted from tweaking the highlights in post. The setup is perfect, the composition great. I understand the "dark blob" to be the bed. Your focal point is right on, and the disappearing depth of field is great. Your choice of black and white is inspired. I don't like the fact that you've forced the story on us with the title, and I would have been more restrained with that. Capturing all of the lingerie in the frame would have been best (not cutting it off at right). Again, fixing the dull and underexposed nature of the photo in post work would have really made the impact greater. Great photo otherwise.

Responding to your forum thread for comments: I found the concept to be fairly creative and the shallow dof a plus to the composition. Where this image earned a 5 from me was that it lacks contrast. I'm not sure how you converted the image to b&w but there is a good tutorial here DPC B&W Tutorial.

Very simple, nicely photographed, not the typical porn style shot. Very tasteful and nice message. Like the B&W to it. Tells a story. :) 9

A nice idea, with a great depth of field.
