Comment by Marsha:
I think I recognize the outfit from last week! If so, I like this picture so much better! Very unusual use of light and breast! Dramatic, for sure. I think this one could be used in this week's illusion challenge, as well. Good job, good title!

I see the cresent, however for the rest of the picture, its all a bit distracting since I'm not sure what it is.

Comment by hedonist:
I would like to thank everyone who comented on this shot (both good and bad). I agree that it need more contrast but I had to bring the brightness down on this one pretty far to get the effect I was looking for on the moon tattoos, and just to clear this one up for the record, yes that is a real tattoo. I want to go back to this one and selectively change the brightness and contrast of different regions to get a better depth of tone but I can't do that within the rules of this contest

Nice shot, I'm confused by the meaning of the chest painting? Tonal range is slightly flat.

Composition: Subject Placement, Cropping, Background 5 (the subject is to straight on, perhaps turning the subject at a 45 degree angle would have worked better. It adds more depth to the photo) , Technical: Focus, Exposure, Lighting, Processing 6 (the lighting was great, but not enough contrast ), Appeal: Is it Interesting, Motivating, Etc.? 5 , Total Averaged Rating 5 . smshats
