Great take on the Challenge judi and front page fantastic love the effect of the shroud model and giving that transparency great lighting and color blend.Gord
Humbly dramatic. Reminds me of a dark Japanese movie, a solemn drumbeat and throaty flute marking unfathomable emotion. The blown fabric mesmerizing and alive. One of my favorites.
My favorite image. Love the tones and muted colors. Very painterly treatment. I've reserved the Blue Ribbon for you. Now let's see if the other voters agree.
The movement of the fabric is so beautiful, the hint of a face and the light...but the processing is so heavy, the texture so cumbersome, and I say this as someone who likes using textures and overlays. This would be so beautiful with out so much going on around and over the subject.
I really like this image but I have no idea what the transparency is supposed to be. Is it the fabric, or are we looking through something as well? Any way it is a fine image, but I will have to come back to score it.
Maybe being pedantic here, but, as beautiful this shot is, it doesn't meet the challenge IMO; I'd rather say the subject is a woman covered with fabric - as opposed to a woman seen through fabric or behind fabric. Other than that you found a great color scheme, the bg works excellently. Only nitpick would be that the right part of the fabric looks like it's held by a string and gives the impression of the woman having something on her back or of a second person sitting behind her - slightly awkward. That said, I can only give you my highest vote for a DNMC image.
