like the strategic placing of the light, but the piercings are not tasteful in the least bit.

I̢۪m just not feeling that this is within the Contre-jour technique. Nice shot just not what I think when I̢۪m looking for Contre-jour. Although this I think is every man's dream to find one that glows like that! WOW!!!

If you google contre-jour images, you see one very similar to this. Nice clear B&W.

I think I just about got myself fired for looking at this. Haha. It's very nice though. I love the clarity. Good use of b&w.

Holding a flashlight isn't creating the true sense of contre jour. There should be a light source illuminating her entire back, not the mottled backdrop. The shadow on the left is behind her and it should be in front. If I were critiquing this as just a "normal" photo, I'd have her move away from the background, eliminating the shadow altogether. She's lovely and the tones and contrast are right, but to me, this does not meet the definition of the challenge.
