Nude Outtakes - Be Kind! - DPChallenge Forums

08/29/2005 06:56:53 PM · #1

I have been encouraged to show some of my outakes from the Nudity III challenge. These are self portrait series and were a lot of fun to try.

I have now uploaded some. I know there are faults in all of them (especially with the model) so be kind please....LOL!!

I like number 2 and 3 very much ... of course with some litle cleaning here and there then it will be just perfect.... and for a self-portrait then this lighting is just awesome.

I think you did really well with your shots. I liked the 2nd one the best, but they are all good.

I like the 3rd shot but the hand is a little distracting. I think I would have placed the hand dangling down on the thigh so you wouldn't really see the fingers in the picture.

I don't know what's up with the general consensus here but I just added the first one to my favorites. I love the "cat" idea...and the last one is good too just a little too in your face with it if you know what i mean.

Thankyou for your honesty Lissylou. I really appreciate that. You have some great photos in your portfolio by the way.

Thanks Rikki..The 'Eyes Off' image revealed way too much for my liking so I played with some curves and masks to hide the areas I wanted. LOL!! Thanks for all of your comments.

WOW Judi! Just great shots! I LOVE the fist one. The colors and contrast are perfect! Your entry was nice too, but I would have given the first one a 10! You make a great model, as well as a wonderful photographer

Hahaha....no...after hiding the midriff area I felt the image was unbalanced, so I played around with the vignetting idea and it really seemed to work for me. LOL!!

Left you comments - Really great shots!

And SINCE you named this thread - Be Kind! LOL (I can't believe I'm going to humiliate myself further, but) I have to know if y'all think that this would have fared better than my near bottom finish (pun intended). ;-)
