Bellissima scatta, abitavo a Ferrara dove usano sempre i bici.

Wow this is such a creative idea - the make up and styling are spot on, the lighting is just right and you've got a gorgeous model there. Very well done - I'd love to have the chance to shoot something like this.

eta - If I might make a suggestion, "Emergence" might work better as a title for the series, "Coming out" has other connotations that you might want to avoid (but then again maybe not!).

Wow this is a really great shot - great use of combined exposures, you're unlucky this wasn't top ten. WTG representing the north - there are too few of us! P.s cheers for the comment - you sussed me out.

I like this shot - there was clearly a lot of effort put into the set-up and I can understand your disappointment. Nice use of a gelled flash.

In terms of what went wrong - my first thought would be that the title is slightly confusing - there is no door immediately obvious that you might be referring to. This leads to the next point that I'm not really sure where I should be looking here, there isn't really an obvious focal point. The fat spider is probably the most obvious point, but there are too many distracting details in the rest of the frame to really draw you into it. I feel that the bottom and right hand thirds of the shot could have been cropped out. Also (and please don't take this the wrong way) - the spiders do look very obviously fake and not really all that scary - I HATE spiders but these ones look quite cuddly. Hope this was helpful!

Great bokeh and DOF, I'd have liked to see both of the subject's hands though.
