Great work. I'd comment further except for fear of looking like a perv...but if you were a few years older or I was a few years younger....ha!

This image scored more 10's than any other in the challenge. 24 votes of 4 or less kept it from ribboning. I'd presume this is a reaction against the fact that it's a male nude, and possibly that it has overtones of Christian symbolism (Christ and the Shroud?). IMO it's an exceptionally strong image (one of my 10's) and, at least from an artictic POV, the best entry in the challenge. Congrats on your 4th!

Great lighting. The 5 works, but it's kind of a bad theme for a nude. But it's still so well done, it's one of my top picks for the challenge. Good luck.

Well done, I like it. It's different and it fits the challenge. I like the lighting, the idea and the model. My only complaint is that his right elbow is a bit too far back. 7
