I really liked this image. I'm not sure what a certain age is, but they seem to have been remarkebly well treated for that time. good luck. I think the lighting and focus may be a bit soft, but I think that does give a bit extra comfort for your model. Good luck.

I think a different angle might have been a better choice.... maybe more of a profile shot. The shirt also takes away from the image IMHO

I liek the softness of this photo. I wish you the best of luck. If this is a self portrait I admire you for submitting.

The bunched up shirt really takes away from this image. I understand the shyness that comes with this challenge, and im not sure if this is a self portrait or what. The lighting could be better, but isnt horrid. Basically what you have here, is a picture of breasts, and I think that there could be a better way to represent them.

Focus seems to be on the blanket, which may or may not have been intended. I wonder if a crop with the top 1/4 would make the image zing? Good luck.

Torn Screen — Morning Thunderstorm

Comment by Bear_Music:
That screen is Karma's version of a doggie door. She created it all by herself. Anomalies in the way this house is oriented/built don't allow the placement of a "regular" doggie door; the only place one might easily exist is right where the sliding glass door is. I'm not gonna bother replacing the screen until winter, because as long as I leave this glass door open she's gonna bust out the screen anyway. I'll need to get a carpenter and an electrician in to create a proper doggie door for her, sigh.

The soft focus gives her skin a nice glow. The composition is static, as if the photographer was only documenting the state of the breast. A different pose might have been more moving. The pattern in the cloth is a distraction. You know, if you had cropped to a vertical with the last 1/3 of the brest and arm on the right, without the cloth, this might have been very interesting. I like how they contrast with each other. gl
