A good b/w study. The hair adds sensuality above and beyond the scarf tease. Bumping to 7 on good quality comp and superb tonal values. bumping to 7
I really enjoy the subject of your shot, it's a very unique way to shoot a nude. The sharpest focus in the shot, however, seems to be at her neck. I would have perfered a central point of focus or a deeper DOF. Tones are a little flat and I wish I could see the expression on her face. Overall, this gets a 7 from me. Good work.
Great b&w shot. I like the lighting and the smooth apearance of the skin. This is also one of the sharpest images of the challenge.I feel you chose well in your cropping of the this shot and the covering of the scarf. Its makes it a very teasing photo. Great job
Excellent use of contrast on several levels. Bordering on artful even :) Cropping couldn't be better. The brightness is just alittle high for me on this monitor, blowing out the contrast on the chest just little too much - effect of bright sun not withstanding. 8. Good luck!
good framing, nice light, enjoyed the stripes and texture of the scarf (abit blurry though) would have thought being a bit more bold by throwing in a nipple on the breast closest the camera would have made a good focal point, and made this picture more shocking and memory making.. but all in all good work, bravo
This is beautiful (and not just for the obvious reason). I like cropping out her face (though the ear is distracting), but allowing us to see her long hair falling behind her. And nice lighting, too.
